Question: A loader operator is assigned to clear snow from a pedestrian walkway adjacent to a building. Which strategy should be prioritized to ensure safety and efficiency?

Answer options:

  • Piling snow in tall, narrow heaps in the centre of the walkway. ✅ Pushing snow away from the building, avoiding obstructions and maintaining sightlines.
  • Using maximum travel speed to complete the task quickly.

Correct answer: Pushing snow away from the building, avoiding obstructions and maintaining sightlines.
