Administrative Controls

Changing the way that jobs are done can reduce injuries. Examples include:

  • reducing the weight that one worker must lift by having more than one person perform a lift;

  • reducing exposure to hot or cold conditions by taking breaks;

  • reducing exposure to noise by rotating tasks to reduce the amount of exposure for each worker;

  • preventing hepatitis B disease by providing hepatitis B vaccine; and/or

  • training workers about hazards and how to avoid being injured.
