Tech/Engineering - Safety / OSHA-Text zum Thema Arbeitsplatzsicherheit und Ergonomie
English term or phrase: struck
Does the process identify mechanical hazards during human-equipment interface that could collide, hit, fall, cut, jam, pin, struck by or against, machine operation, or motor vehicle operation, and are those hazards controlled?

Ich glaub ich bin hier am meisten aufgrund der Verwendung des past participle verwirrt.
Stimmt der Ausgangstext? Und wie formuliere ich das ins Deutsche?

TIA.
