risk control
"taking steps to reduce the chance, and/or the consequences, of the hazard causing harm, such as using quieter machines, or stopping people going into noisy work areas "
Workers should be protected from occupational risks they could be exposed to. This could be achieved through a risk management process, which involves risk analysis, risk assessment and risk control practices. In order to carry out an effective risk management process, it is necessary to have a clear understanding of the legal context, concepts, risk analysis, assessment and control processes and the role played by all involved in the process.
