Under the model Work Health and Safety Laws, workplaces that handle or use hazardous chemicals must use the hierarchy of controls to manage health and safety risks.  

This video shows you how to use the hierarchy and choose the best controls. 

Watch this video if your business handles, uses or stores hazardous chemicals, or if you work with them, including chemical consultants and occupational hygienists.
