CIPS Socially Responsible Warehousing and Distribution L3M6 Question # 27 Topic 3 Discussion
L3M6 Exam Topic 3 Question 27 Discussion:
Question #: 27
Topic #: 3
Many incidents and accidents that happen at work can be prevented if guidelines and laws are followed. It’s the employee’s responsibility to keep the work environment free from hazards and provide training and personal protective equipment.
While adherence to guidelines prevents accidents, it’s the employer’s responsibility—notemployees’—to ensure a hazard-free workplace, provide training, and supply PPE, per laws like the UK’s Health and Safety at Work Act 1974. The CIPS L3M6 module clarifies this in LO2, as environmental safety (e.g., noise, vibrations) ties to workplace conditions. The statement is false due to this misassignment.
