Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Engineering controls aim to eliminate or minimize hazards at the source through design, modification or substitution. This reduces the need for workers to rely on personal protective equipment and thus reduces the possibility of human error. Therefore, engineering controls are often considered the most effective means of preventing workplace accidents and injuries. However, administrative controls, detective controls, and directive controls can also complement engineering controls to improve overall safety.
