If a worker experiences discomfort on the job, what should they NOT do?

Continue working
Go home early and rest
Report it to their supervisor
Take a short break

The correct answer is: Go home early and rest

If a worker experiences discomfort on the job, the most appropriate course of action involves assessing the situation thoroughly rather than opting to go home early and rest. Continuing to work, reporting the issue to a supervisor, or taking a short break allows the worker to address the discomfort in a constructive manner. Opting to go home early may not appropriately address the underlying cause of the discomfort and could leave potential workplace issues unreported. This choice does not contribute to the development of strategies to alleviate discomfort, nor does it engage the support systems in place, such as supervisors who may be equipped to assist or provide adjustments needed to enhance ergonomic safety and comfort. Thus, the focus should be on proactive measures to ensure a safe and healthy working environment.
