Electronegativity of P=2.1 and of C = 2.5 and that of O is 3.5 and H has elctronegativity 2.2
greater will be the electronegativity difference and thus higher will be the polarity
Electronegativity difference between P and H is 0.1
Electronegativity difference between O and H is 1.3
Electronegativity difference between C and H is 0.3
Now we can conclude that
O-H > C-H > P-H
