Identify hazards associated with electric power tools

• Noise: Electric motors and tool operations (cutting, grinding, drilling) generate high noise levels.
• Dust: Material processing (wood, concrete, metal) by electric tools produces airborne dust particles.
• Electric shock: Powered by electricity, faulty wiring, damaged cords, or wet conditions present shock risks.
• Vibration: Hand-held power tools transmit mechanical vibrations to the operator's hands and arms.
