Answer:

administrative controls

Explanation:

Administrative controls are hazard controls which take the form of trainings, processes and procedures, as well as shift designs that are done to mitigate or lessen the threat of a hazard to an individual. These controls actually work to modify the behaviour of individuals to control these hazard instead of changing the hazards themselves.

Administrative controls rank fourth place on the larger hierarchy of hazard controls.

Administrative control

Explanation:

According to Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), Administrative control involves trying to control and minimize the extent to which an employee is exposed to a hazardous situation in the workplace.

This can be done by scheduling the employees tasks in such a way that they avoid operations in which there is a high chance of being exposed to these hazards.
