Your boss has asked you to investigate these operations and tasks that he feels have a significant potential for injury in the manufacturing plant:

1. Operating electric forklifts in narrow aisles.
2. Repairing the hydraulic system on the gas-powered forklift.
3. Operating the large sheet metal shear.

For each of the three tasks, do the following:

• Identify a minimum of two (or three) hazards of the operation and the injuries that could result from exposure to them.
• Determine the control measures that would eliminate the identified hazards or reduce the risk (severity and/or probability) of injury. Be sure to consider all levels in the hierarchy of controls.
• Analyze the effectiveness of each control measure by assessing the risks before and after the control is implemented.
• Provide your recommendations for which control measures should be implemented and why you chose them.
