Respond to the details in each section, and format your report in APA style. Include at least each of the following in your report for this unit:
- Introduction—briefly describe why the studies were performed (why you started the study).
- Report details—briefly discuss the details of the scenario (what you found from the study).
- Conclusions and recommendations—briefly describe your recommendations based on your findings (what you recommend to resolve any deficiencies).
- Appendix—Measurements and calculations (show your work).
- At least one page (double-spaced) in length (not including the reference page and appendices).
Prepare your report in a word-processing application (i.e., Word) using APA formatting for all references and in-text citations.
Question 2 (Part 3)
Comprehensive Report
In this course, you are asked to prepare a Final Project (Comprehensive Report), which is made up of various scenarios throughout each unit. Each unit (i.e., units II through VIII) contains a scenario for you to solve and to provide recommendations. By the end of the course, you are asked to collect all of the individual responses from each scenario and to insert them into a Comprehensive Report.
The Final Project (Comprehensive Report) requires each of the following:
- Title page (APA format)
- Executive Summary (summarize the entire report by briefly identifying the main points of each individual report)
- Table of Contents
- Each of the individual reports (with any necessary corrections/improvements)
- Each appendix from the individual reports (with any necessary corrections/improvements)
The purpose of this Project and its constituent reports is to provide you with an opportunity to gather data, calculate data, make recommendations, and prepare reports as an advanced safety professional. Once complete, keep your Comprehensive Report as a demonstration of your ability to perform as an advanced safety professional, as well as a representation of your attention to detail. Bosses like that kind of thing, and so do future employers.
