Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
OSHA promulgates occupational health and safety standards, which are published in the Code of Federal Regulations and updated on a regular basis. Having access to the most recent publication of these standards is a crucial responsibility of the occupational health nurse (OHN). The OHN must be knowledgeable of Title 29 of the code and other sections of the code that apply to specific hazards in the workplace.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
SES may be determined by examining income, occupation, and educational level. If that is not possible, age, gender, possessions, location of residence, religion, and race may also be considered.
