collective protective measure
measure to eliminate workplace risks at source, through technical or organisational means or by providing protection on a collective basis, like providing scaffolding instead of harnesses, that have priority over protective measures applying to individual employees
If risks are not avoidable or preventable, how can they be reduced to a level at which the health and safety of those exposed is not compromised? The following additional general principles of prevention should be followed:… giving collective protective measures priority over individual protective measures (e.g. controlling exposure to fumes through local exhaust ventilation rather than personal respirators)
