2)-Biological hazard - bacteria, viruses, insects, plants, birds, animals, and humans, etc.
3)-Chemical Hazard– Gases, dusts, fumes, vapours and liquids.
4)-Ergonomic Hazard – poor design of equipment, workstation design, (postural) or workflow, manual handling, repetitive movement.
5)-Psychological Hazard– Shiftwork, workload, dealing with the public, harassment, discrimination, threat of danger, constant low-level noise, stress.
6)-Radiation Hazard– Microwaves, infra-red, ultraviolet, lasers, X-rays and gamma rays.

A hazard is an agent which has the potential to cause harm to a vulnerable target. The terms "hazard" and "risk" are often used interchangeably. However, in terms of risk assessment, these are two very distinct terms

Types of hazard
✔Physical Hazard : Examples of physical hazards include slips, trips, falls, exposure to loud noises, working from heights, vibrations, and unguarded machinery.♥
✔Ergonomic Hazard : examples of this hazard are poor lighting, repetitive motion, awkward movements, and poor posture ♥
✔Chemical Hazard : Examples include cleaning solutions and solvents, vapors and fumes, carbon monoxide and any other gases.♥
✔Biological Hazard : Examples include blood or other bodily fluids, animal care, insect bites, bacteria or viruses.♥
