Type of hazard control

Meta AI: There are several types of hazard controls, including:

1. Elimination: Removing the hazard altogether.
2. Substitution: Replacing the hazard with a less hazardous alternative.
3. Engineering controls: Designing or modifying equipment or processes to reduce the hazard.
4. Administrative controls: Implementing policies, procedures, and training to minimize exposure to the hazard.
5. Personal protective equipment (PPE): Providing workers with personal protective gear to reduce exposure to the hazard.
6. Isolation: Separating the hazard from people and the environment.
7. Ventilation: Removing airborne hazards through ventilation systems.
8. Shielding: Using barriers to block or absorb the hazard.
9. Safety protocols: Establishing specific procedures for handling hazardous situations.
10. Training and education: Educating workers on hazard recognition and control.

These controls aim to mitigate or eliminate hazards, ensuring a safer work environment and reducing the risk of accidents and injuries.
