      Answer Example

      "Safety is very important to me. I have seen coworkers permanently injured while doing something unsafe, and I don't want that to happen to anyone on my crew. I require everyone on my crew to wear hard hats, eye protection, steel-toe boots, safety harnesses when working above six feet, and to use caution when using electrical tools around water. If the situation requires my crew to wear gloves or respirators, I will ensure my crew wears the appropriate protective equipment."
