Hierarchy of Controls

About this course

Hazards and safety risks exist in almost every workplace.


When safety is not taken seriously, things can go wrong, and people get hurt; sometimes, even fatalities can occur.


Ensuring risks of harm to workers can be managed is one of the highest priorities in the workplace. Some laws even state that controlling risks is an obligation of employers and workers.


The Hierarchy of Controls is one tool that can help us select the best control risks.


This module is designed to provide you with knowledge about the Hierarchy of Controls and examples of how to use it to ensure you can work safely.
