Project Summary: Write a minimum of a 250 word journal entry elaborating on the "hierarchy of controls" and on the how you implement the "hierarchy of controls" in day-to-day activities in your life (i.e. work, home, travel, activities, etc.).
Be sure to answer the following three questions, in a minimum of three (3) paragraphs...one paragraph for each of the three (3) questions:
1) What are the "Hierarchy of Controls"?
2) Which hierarchy of controls do you believe you utilize most/least and why?
2) Which hierarchy of controls do you believe are most/least practical and why?
For example purposes of "hierarchy of control" implementation, I instruct the children in my house to stay outside of the kitchen when I cook to avoid the interaction with the cooking activities (i.e. hot water, hot oven, knives, etc.)...this would be an "administration" control applied. I also cook on the backside burners of the stove to reduce the likelihood of the pot being knocked off and to prevent a kid from grabbing it and getting burned...this would be considered an "engineering" control.

Below is a list of the "heirarchy of controls" application examples.
Elimination Control examples:
1) Eliminating a fall hazard by working on the ground vs working above the ground;
2) Eliminating ergonomic hazards by staging equipment at a height that does not require lifting;
3) Eliminate confined space hazards in the design phase so that the space is not a "confined space" by definition;
Substitution Control examples:
1) Implementing automated material handling equipment rather than manual material handling;
2) Using a less hazardous cleaning chemical;
3) Upgrading an old boiler system with higher explosion hazards to a hot air system.
Engineering Control examples:
1) Implement machine guards;
2) Implement circuit breakers;
3) Implement a ventilation system.
Administration Control examples:
1) Training;
2) Supervision;
3) Job rotation;;
4) scheduling;
5) inspections/investigations.
Personal Protective Equipment examples:
1) safety glasses;
2) respirators;
3) hearing protection;
4) safety shoes;
5) gloves.
and here is another link for a video

and here is the last link that you would need to look at it
https://www.cdc.gov/niosh/topics/hierarchy/
after seeing the all links that I have put there then you will be able to write the journal
thanks
