Which term describes dangerous jobs including heavy machinery?

• A. Hazardous Work
• B. Non-Hazardous Work
• C. Sweatshops
• D. Globalization

Answer: (A)

Identifying terminology for dangerous work, especially when heavy machinery is involved, helps you understand how safety risk is described in workplaces. Hazardous work describes tasks or environments with significant risk to workers’ health or safety due to conditions, tools, or materials. Heavy machinery increases that danger with moving parts, crush risks, noise, and vibration, so labeling a job as hazardous signals the need for strong safety measures, training, and protective equipment.

The other terms don’t fit as well because non-hazardous work implies low risk, sweatshops focus more on exploitative conditions and wages rather than the specific safety risk, and globalization is about economic interconnection, not job safety risk.
