what are the different physical hazard?
318588
There are five main classes of physical hazard namely Explosive, Flammable, Oxidising, Gases under Pressure and Corrosive to metals. These are then sub-divided into different categories depending on the degree of danger and these are assigned specific hazard statements to identity them.

Types of Hazards The three basic types of hazardous mechanical motions and actions are: Hazardous Motions – including rotating machine parts, reciprocating motions (sliding parts or up/down motions), and transverse motions (materials moving in a continuous line);

Many hazards on the job are obvious, like sharp objects, slippery floors, and hot liquids. Other hazards, such as repetitive movements and chemicals, may be hidden.

Natural hazards can be classified into several broad categories: geological hazards, hydrological hazards, meteorological hazards, and biological hazards. Geological hazards are hazards driven by geological (i.e., Earth) processes, in particular, plate tectonics. This includes earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.

Some common safety concerns include falls, trips, fire hazards, road accidents, bumps and collisions. Moreover, physical hazards, such as insufficient lighting, noise and inappropriate levels of temperature, ventilation and humidity, can put your security guards' health and safety at risk.

While there are many food safety hazards that can cause food contamination, most fall into one of three categories: biological, physical or chemical contamination. It's important to understand what the potential hazards are when it comes to food, especially if you are preparing or serving food for someone else.
