Question

select the best choice for the following statement
practicing good housekeeping involves which of the following?
a) keeping the work area free of paper, cardboard, trash & combustibles
b) picking up clutter only in your area
c) keeping trash stored close to heat - producing equipment
d) none of the above

Explanation:

Good housekeeping in a safety context (related to fire prevention) involves removing fire - hazard materials like paper, cardboard, trash, and combustibles from the work area. Option b is too limited as good housekeeping is not just about one's own area. Option c is incorrect as storing trash near heat - producing equipment is a fire hazard. Since option a is correct, option d (none of the above) is wrong.

Answer:

A. Keeping the work area free of paper, cardboard, trash & combustibles
