What you'll learn

Identify the six primary categories of pinch point sources in the workplace, including moving machinery, mechanical equipment, hand and power tools, doors and sliding components, material handling operations, and maintenance activities.
Explain the purpose and legal significance of safety labels, warning decals, and hazard markings placed on machinery and equipment.
Describe the steps of a pre-task review and explain how routine workplace inspections contribute to ongoing hazard identification and reporting obligations.

Description

Recognizing Hazards introduces workers to the wide variety of environments and equipment types in which pinch point hazards can be found. The module establishes that effective injury prevention begins with trained observation — the ability to identify a hazard before it causes harm. Workers learn to recognize the most common sources of pinch points, interpret safety labels and hazard markings, apply pre-task review techniques, and fulfill their reporting obligations when unsafe conditions are discovered. This module reinforces that hazard recognition is not a passive skill but an active, deliberate practice that must be applied consistently throughout the workday.
