Working at a height without a safety rope is an example of what type of hazard?

Chemical hazard
Biological hazard
Physical hazard
Practice

The correct answer is: Physical hazard

Working at a height without a safety rope falls under the category of a physical hazard. This is because the potential danger in this situation comes from the physical environment or process, rather than from a chemical, biological, or practice-related source. Chemical hazards involve exposure to toxic substances, biological hazards involve exposure to living organisms, and practice hazards involve unsafe working practices or procedures. Therefore, working at a height without a safety rope does not fall under any of these categories and is best classified as a physical hazard.
