Controls Save Lives (3)
Safety is the presence of safeguards or the presence of controls. This module develops your capability to choose, evaluate, and confirm adequate controls for high‑energy hazards.
Description
Safety is the presence of effective controls, not the absence of incidents. This module defines the different types of controls, both direct and alternative controls.
You’ll understand how to apply direct controls and alternative controls appropriately, decide whether controls are adequate using a simple decision pathway, and identify when work is safe to proceed and when controls are insufficient.
