Class E criteria can be characterized by which combination?

• A. Less than $25,000 and no reportable injury
• B. Less than $25,000
• C. No reportable injury
• D. Between $25,000 and $60,000

Answer: (A)

Class E is the least severe mishap category and is defined by two conditions: property damage below a set monetary threshold and no injuries that require reporting. In practice, that means the event caused less than $25,000 in damage and there were no reportable injuries. If either part isn’t true—there’s an injury that meets reporting criteria, or the damage is equal to or greater than the threshold—the incident falls into a higher class. So the combination of “less than $25,000 in damage and no reportable injury” best fits Class E.
