    A box is 80 cm long, 50 cm deep and 70 cm high. EU-OSHA's checklist suggests about 60 x 35 x 60 cm. What is the problem?

    • ANothing, it is within the suggested size
    • BOnly its height is larger than suggested
    • COnly its depth is larger than suggested
    • DIt is too big to hold close or see over
    显示答案

    答案: D. It is too big to hold close or see over

    80 > 60, 50 > 35 and 70 > 60, so all three sizes are larger than suggested. Large loads are hard to keep close and can block your view.
