Total questions: 20
Worksheet time: 10mins
What is the most appropriate definition of maintenance?
Emergency repair of broken equipment
The act of keeping equipment in proper working condition
Replacement of failed components only
Inspection without repair
Which type of maintenance is considered the most expensive approach?
Preventive maintenance
Corrective maintenance
Predictive maintenance
Reactive maintenance
Reactive maintenance mainly involves:
Scheduled replacement of components
Forecasting failures using technology
Repairing equipment only after breakdown
Routine inspection and lubrication
Corrective maintenance activities are usually generated from:
Equipment failure only
Planned inspections and routine service requirements
Emergency shutdowns
Production delays
Preventive maintenance is best described as:
Repairing equipment after failure
Replacing components before failure occurs
Predicting failures using sensors
Emergency maintenance action
Which activity is included in preventive maintenance?
Emergency shutdown
Lubrication and routine inspection
Equipment redesign
Failure investigation
The primary goal of preventive maintenance is to:
Reduce manpower
Increase downtime
Prevent equipment failure
Replace all components
Predictive maintenance differs from preventive maintenance because it:
Focuses only on manual tasks
Is performed after failure
Uses technology to assess equipment condition
Is more expensive than reactive maintenance
The main purpose of a permit-to-work system is to:
Speed up maintenance work
Reduce paperwork
Ensure hazards and precautions are clearly understood
Replace maintenance procedures
Before entering a confined space, which action is essential?
Equipment repainting
Gas testing for oxygen and toxic gases
Production shutdown
Tool inspection only
What is the primary purpose of Process Safety Management (PSM)?
To improve product quality
To manage occupational injuries only
To identify and manage process risks
To reduce production costs
PSM is best described as:
A maintenance management system
A safety management system specific to process industries
A quality assurance framework
A personal protective equipment program
The ultimate goal of PSM is to prevent:
Minor workplace injuries
Equipment downtime
Major hazard incidents
Production delays
PSM applies management principles in a _____ manner to prevent loss of containment events.
Reactive
Passive
Proactive
Corrective
According to the background of PSM, which organization issued the PSM rules (29 CFR 1910.119)?
EPA
WHO
OSHA
ISO
Which of the following best defines process safety culture?
Written safety procedures only
Individual worker attitudes toward safety
Group values and behaviors that determine how process safety is managed
Compliance with legal standards
Which PSM element focuses on identifying hazards and evaluating risks throughout the process life cycle?
Workforce Involvement
Hazard Identification and Risk Analysis
Incident Investigation
Management Review
Operating procedures in PSM should primarily ensure that:
Production targets are met
Operators understand hazards and controls
Maintenance costs are minimized
Equipment design is improved
Lockout–Tagout (LOTO) is an example of:
Operating procedure
Emergency management
Safe work practice
Incident investigation
The main purpose of Management of Change (MOC) is to:
Improve production efficiency
Eliminate all hazards
Ensure changes do not introduce new or increased risks
Replace existing operating procedures
