RESEARCH OBJECTIVES

Sun Coast's main objective is the welfare and safety of its employees. Through research, the company will obtain valuable information that will guarantee the health, welfare, and safety of its employees while minimizing worksite injuries. Sun Coast has put together a team of experts that have identified 6 health and safety risks and concerns that affect employees at the sites. These particular matters will require further research. This study will pinpoint and examine if there is a relationship that involves PM(particular matter) and the exposure and impacts it has on its employees relatively to size and employee health, noise levels, lead poisoning, and training. Their objective is to compare outdated safety modules or data with the newly formed safety training material to determine its effectiveness and consistent with reducing lost-time hours or the predicting thereof as it pertains to training. The organization main objective is to test the condition of its data and then make decisions based upon its return investments concerning various training and testing of its land sites. The following return investments comprise the organization’s safety training program, air quality and control monitoring, soil outcome testing, and the water recovery program.

RO1: To determine the related variables between the size of the particulate matter and employee health impactions.

RO2: To determine if lost-time hours are directly related to safety training.

RO3: To determine through data collected whether it predicts the decibel level of healthy work environments.

RO4: To determine if the training programs with various revision is more actual than those that have been archived.

RO3: To determine if the blood lead level has increased in employees working on the site.

RO2: To determine the existence of the return-on-investment controls within the services they provide.

RESEARCH QUESTIONS AND HYPOTHESIS

After carefully reviewing all data collected, we have formulated questions with the corresponding hypothesis for each question. The following are the research questions and the hypothesis that will help the researcher to achieve the results of the study.

RQ1: What is the relationship between variables that determine the size of particulate matter and employee health impactions?

H01: There is no significant correlation between variables of particulate matter and employee health impactions of decline.

HA1: There is a statistically significant correlation between variable particulate matter size and employee health impactions of decline.

RQ2: What is the relationship between safety and training program expenses as it relates to the reduction of lost-time hours encompassing training hours?

H02: There is no significant correlation between training program expenses and losing hours while training.

HA2: There is a significant correlation between training expenses and reducing lost-time hours.

RQ3: What is the relationship between decibel level work environments and healthy work environments?

H03: There is no significant correlation between data that can determine if the decibel level work environments are healthy prior to place employees on sites.

HA3: There is a significant correlation between data that substantiates a work-free healthy environment free of decibel levels versus environments that have been surveyed with decibel levels before the arrival of employees on various sites.

RQ4: What is the relationship between the revision of and effectiveness of training programs in contrary to outmoded and inadequate training programs?

H04: There is no significant correlation between the revision of and effectiveness of training programs in contrary to outmoded and inadequate training programs.

HA4: There is a significant correlation between the revision of and effectiveness of training programs in contrary to outmoded and inadequate training programs.

RQ5: What is the relationship between the employee blood level rising and lead poisoning?

H05: There is no statistical correlation between data collected which determines the employees' blood level rises and lead poisoning.

HA5: There is a statistical correlation between data collected which determines if the employee’s blood levels rise and lead poisoning.

RQ6: What is the relationship between an investment return and services rendered for evaluation and increase financial gains?

H06: There is no statistical correlation that determines an investment return between services rendered and evaluated for increased financial gains.

HA6: There is a statistical correlation between demonstrations of return investments and service and evaluated for the increase of financial gains.
