Exposure to hard weather conditions, such as extreme temperatures, precipitation, or challenging terrain. These factors can contribute to discomfort and physical exertion/strain.
Field environments may pose hazards like wildlife encounters, challenging topography, or adverse weather events, with severity and frequency varying by project and season.
Geological core logging can involve lifting of up to 60lbs repetitively and periods of intense concentration and pressure.
Office work
Generally controlled, but periods of intense concentration and pressure may occur, especially during deadlines.
Hazards are minimal compared to the field, with potential for discomfort during extended computer work.
