5. OSHA requires guardrails and toe-boards to be provided only when working at height.- F
1. The Human Factors Theory of accident causation focuses on accidents caused by overload, inappropriate response, and inappropriate activities. - T
2. OSHA cannot enforce the voluntary guidelines for ergonomic hazards because they are not part of an OSHA standard- F
3. Determining the extent of a disability, for the purpose of workers' compensation, is often contentious and accounts for more litigation than any other issue. - T
