Explanation:

Question 18

To address an employee not wearing required PPE in a chemical lab, ignoring (a) is unsafe. Terminating (c) is too harsh initially. Reporting to OSHA (d) is not the first strategic step. Providing training (b) educates the employee on PPE importance, promoting safety and compliance.

An Emergency Action Plan (EAP) in the workplace is a plan detailing steps during emergencies to ensure safety. Option a is about workplace injuries (narrower), c is just contact numbers, d is about drill schedules. Option b matches the EAP's role.

Active listening technique summarizing the speaker's words is paraphrasing. Interrupting (b), multitasking (c), and ignoring (d) are not active listening techniques. Paraphrasing (a) confirms understanding by restating/summarizing.

Answer:

b. Provide additional training on the importance of PPE
