Occupational Safety & Health Administration

|
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration develops and sets mandatory requirements applicable to workplaces in the U.S. and mandates specific engineering and administrative controls to negate potential health hazards. Engineering controls include eliminating or replacing harmful toxic materials with less hazardous ones, enclosing work processes or confining work operations, and installing general and local ventilation systems. Administrative, or procedural controls alter the manner in which a task is performed. |
