Potential safety hazards come from a large number of sources each posing unique dangers and also vary greatly in the degree of risk as well as the type of energy that each can release when not prevented or controlled. Table provides a list of a wide range of equipment tools sources etc. that can cause safety hazards. EMPHASIS ON HAZARDS The emphasis in this chapter is upon safety hazards.
