Chemical hazard factors, such as toxic materials. 3. Ergonomic hazard factors, such as Musculoskeletal Disorder (MSDs), deformity. 4. Psychological hazard factors, such as pressure between scavengers. 5. Biological hazard factors, such as those caused by vectors and animals that disturb flies, rats, mosquitoes, cockroaches and fungi. 6. Environmental hazard factors, such as damaging the environment, air pollution, and soil pollution. 7.
