Hazard controls should be applied whenever there is an increased or unacceptable risk or hazard.
Effective hazard controls should prioritize the elimination or substitution of hazards whenever possible, followed by engineering controls to minimize exposure. Administrative controls and safe work practices should be implemented to ensure proper procedures are followed. Personal protective equipment (PPE) should be used as a last line of defense. Additionally, regular training and monitoring are essential to ensure that controls remain effective and that workers are aware of the hazards they face.
Engineering controls
Leaders can supervise compliance with hazard controls during a mission by ensuring subordinates understand how controls are implemented and adjusted as situational awareness demands.
Controls that take the form "a hazard exists" are typically referred to as "hazard identification and assessment controls." These controls focus on recognizing potential hazards and evaluating their risks before they lead to incidents. They include measures such as safety audits, risk assessments, and hazard analysis, which aim to identify and prioritize risks for further action. By acknowledging that a hazard exists, organizations can implement appropriate preventive measures and create safer environments.

Physical Controls
There are three basic categories of controls. Physical controls may take the form of barriers and guards or signs to warn individuals and units that a hazard exists.
