Answer: The type of hazard Mary is most likely to encounter is Static Posture (Option D)

Explanation: In office-based jobs, people spend around 6 to 7 hours sitting in the same posture while they are working on their laptops/desktops etc. Office based job requires less muscular efforts, and as a result, it causes blood flow to decrease, which is being supplied to the legs, and causes them to be stiff and numb. Moreover, it can also cause neck stiffness and back problems and in the long run can lead to severe problems.
