Harm caused by health hazards depends on:
*Strength or potency of the agent
*Amount of the agent that is present
*How long you are exposed to the agent
*Part of your body that is exposed
Types of health effects:
*Acute- the effects shows up right away.
*Chronic- problem shows up after a long period of exposure.
*Local- only the part of the body that was exposed is affected.
*Systemic- an agent enters the body and affects other parts of
the body.
*Sensitization- allergic or sensitive to some agents you work
with.

following:
1.) Engineering Control- make physical changes to work area
like isolating, enclosing, and redesigning the
workplace.
2.) Administrative Control- adjust work schedules, provide
alarms, signgs and warnings, buddy
system.
