QUESTION 1 OF 25

What made you choose a career as an Occupational Health and Safety Technician?

The interviewer wants to hear what made you choose a career as an Occupational Health and Safety Technician. If you have a personal experience with a workplace hazard or injury that motivated you into this career, describe what happened. Or, you may want to help the community by measuring hazards and taking steps to prevent harm to civilians, the environment, and property.

"I am pursuing a career as an Occupational Health and Safety Technician because my grandfather was seriously injured in an industrial accident at work. After an investigation, it was found that the manufacturing plant was not safely operating its equipment, and my grandfather lost his arm because of those unsafe practices. I want to be able to identify workplace hazards and help prevent anyone else from being injured while at work."
