Fatigue or distraction of the worker. c) State two ways by which the type of accident illustrated in the diagram could be prevented. 1. Installing and maintaining machine guards on all moving parts of machinery. 2. Providing thorough training to workers on safe operating procedures and hazard recognition. d) The material labelled X is a safety material. State three ways by which its use is important in the factory. The material labelled X is a safety helmet (hard hat). Its use is important in the factory in the following ways: 1. It protects the wearer's head from falling objects that could cause severe injury. 2. It shields the head from impacts with stationary objects or machinery. 3.
