Date: 2023-02-16

Controlling exposures to hazards in the workplace is vital to protecting workers. The hierarchy of controls is a way of determining which actions will best control exposures. The hierarchy of controls has five levels of actions to reduce or remove hazards. The preferred order of action based on general effectiveness is:
Hierarchy of Controls
Elimination
Substitution
Engineering controls
Administrative controls
Personal protective equipment (PPE)

Using this hierarchy can lower worker exposure and reduce the risk of illness or injury.
