Which of the following is NOT listed as a possible physical harm from a workplace fire?

• A. Electrocution
• B. Burns from heat or flames
• C. Smoke inhalation
• D. Suffocation/respiratory problems

Answer: (A)

The main idea is recognizing which injuries fires directly cause in the workplace. Exposed heat and flames cause burns, while inhaling smoke and hot gases leads to smoke inhalation and can cause respiratory problems or suffocation. Electrocution isn’t a direct consequence of the fire’s heat or smoke; it’s an electrical hazard that can become a risk if wiring or equipment is damaged, but it isn’t a typical fire-caused harm in the same way as burns or inhalation. So the signal harm that isn’t listed as a direct fire harm is electrocution.
