When performing tasks under supervision, a worker must ensure that their responsibilities do not expose themselves or others to ULOR.

• A. Delegate all safety decisions to the supervisor.
• B. Only monitor safety when convenient.
• C. Avoid communication with coworkers.
• D. Ensure that the work under their control, supervision, leadership does not expose themselves or others to an ULOR.

Answer: (D)

When you’re performing tasks under supervision, you still have responsibility for safety in the area you control or lead. ULOR represents a level of exposure that must not occur, so your role is to ensure the work under your direction does not create that exposure for you or for others. This means actively planning the task, implementing appropriate controls, and staying engaged with the work and the team to monitor hazards, rather than simply handing safety decisions to someone else. If you only watch safety when it’s convenient, or avoid communicating with coworkers, risks can go unaddressed and ULOR exposure can occur. Delegating all safety decisions away ignores your duty to manage risk within your scope. The best approach is to take ownership of safety for the tasks you supervise and ensure everyone involved is aware of hazards, controls, and the steps needed to keep risk at or below acceptable levels.
