How can inadequacies in the hierarchy of control be identified?

Inadequacies in the hierarchy of control can be identified through regular risk assessments that evaluate the effectiveness of existing control measures. Engaging employees in safety audits and feedback sessions can reveal gaps in the implementation of controls. Additionally, analyzing incident reports and near-misses can highlight areas where controls failed or were insufficient. Regular training and reviews of safety protocols also help ensure that the hierarchy of control is properly understood and followed.
