The type of controls that take the form of barriers, guards, or warning signs are known as physical controls. These controls are designed to prevent accidents or injuries by creating a physical separation between individuals and hazards, thereby reducing exposure to risks. Examples include safety barriers around machinery, guardrails on elevated surfaces, and warning signs indicating hazardous areas. By implementing these measures, organizations can enhance safety and ensure compliance with health and safety regulations.
