  1. A worker receives a chemical splash to the eyes. The correct first aid treatment is to irrigate the eyes with water for a minimum of:

    Answer: 15 to 20 minutes

    Eyes exposed to chemical splashes must be flushed continuously with water for at least 15–20 minutes to effectively dilute and remove the chemical.

  2. Which of the following represents the correct compression-to-ventilation ratio for adult CPR performed by a single rescuer?

    Answer: 30 compressions to 2 breaths

    Current AHA guidelines specify a 30:2 compression-to-ventilation ratio for single-rescuer adult CPR.

  3. When assessing a workplace injury using the primary survey, what does the 'C' in the ABCDE approach stand for?

    Answer: Cervical spine / Catastrophic hemorrhage

    In the ABCDE primary survey, 'C' stands for Cervical spine protection and Catastrophic hemorrhage control.

  4. A worker develops frostbite on their fingers after working outdoors in extreme cold. The OFA attendant should:

    Answer: Protect the area from further cold and avoid rewarming if refreezing is possible

    Frostbitten tissue should not be rewarmed in the field if there is a risk of refreezing, as thaw-refreeze cycles cause severe tissue damage.

  5. A worker is found in a confined space, unresponsive. The FIRST action the OFA attendant should take is to:

    Answer: Call for help and do NOT enter until the space is confirmed safe

    Confined space rescues require atmospheric testing and standby rescue procedures; entering without confirmation exposes rescuers to the same hazard that incapacitated the worker.

  6. Which of the following correctly describes the difference between an open and closed fracture?

    Answer: An open fracture involves a break in the skin near or at the fracture site; a closed fracture does not

    An open (compound) fracture has a wound in the skin near the fracture, creating a high risk of infection compared to a closed fracture.

  7. What is the recommended rate of chest compressions during adult CPR according to current AHA guidelines?

    Answer: 100–120 compressions per minute

    The AHA recommends a compression rate of 100–120 per minute to optimize cardiac output during CPR.
