The role of health and safety regulations in engineering projects is to:
Ensure the protection of workers, the public, and the environment.
Focus only on reducing costs related to safety.
Restrict workers' ability to act independently.
Maximize productivity at the expense of safety.
Risk management in engineering includes:
Reducing the likelihood of an incident but ignoring its potential impact.
Implementing measures to avoid, transfer, mitigate, or accept risks.
Only focusing on financial risks and disregarding safety concerns.
Prioritizing cost reduction over safety considerations.
An engineer in Nigeria who discovers a potential safety hazard in a construction project should:
