Occupational Health and Safety Concept Map Guide
Occupational health and safety (OHS) is the study of protecting workers from injury and illness at work. A useful OHS mind map starts with the central idea of a safe workplace and splits it into the main areas that students are tested on: hazards, risk assessment, control measures, legal duties and incident reporting. Each branch then breaks down into specific examples, such as physical, chemical, biological and ergonomic hazards.
- Hazard types: physical, chemical, biological, ergonomic and psychosocial hazards
- Risk assessment: identifying, rating and prioritizing workplace risks
- Control measures: elimination, substitution, engineering, administrative and PPE
- Legal duties: employer and employee responsibilities under safety law
- Incident reporting: recording, investigating and preventing repeat injuries
Use the map to revise each branch before an exam, or to plan a workplace safety review. CogniGuide can build a personalized OHS map from your own notes, so the structure matches your course.
Occupational Health and Safety Questions
Answers to common questions about OHS topics and building your own map.
What is the hierarchy of controls?
The hierarchy of controls ranks safety measures from most to least effective: elimination, substitution, engineering controls, administrative controls and personal protective equipment. Stronger controls remove the hazard itself rather than relying on workers to avoid it.
What are the main types of workplace hazards?
The usual categories are physical, chemical, biological, ergonomic and psychosocial hazards. Each category has examples, such as noise and heat, solvents and dusts, bacteria and viruses, repetitive lifting, and workplace stress.
Which file types can I use to build the map?
You can upload PDF, Word (DOCX), PowerPoint (PPTX), text or Markdown files, or images of your notes. You can also type a topic and let the AI build the map from it.
Can I turn my OHS map into a quiz?
Yes. You can turn a CogniGuide map into a quiz to test yourself, and the same notes can also become flashcards. There is a free plan with 5 creations a week.
