If a task saves time but increases injury risk, what should be the ergonomic decision?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Adopt a risk-reducing method

Direct answer: A, adopt the method that reduces risk. Ergonomics seeks a balance between efficiency, health, and safety. Saving time is not a good result if the method increases the chance of injury, because injury can cause pain, absence, long-term disability, and lower overall performance. A safer method may involve a tool change, better posture, slower safe movement, task redesign, or appropriate breaks. B is wrong because ignoring a known danger is unsafe. C is wrong because removing breaks can increase fatigue and risk. D is wrong because greater speed may increase the danger further. The correct decision is to reduce risk first while keeping reasonable efficiency. Memory cue: fast but dangerous is not ergonomic.
