Engineering controls help reduce exposure to potential hazards either by isolating the hazard or by removing it from the work environment. Engineering controls include mechanical ventilation and process enclosure. They are important because they are built into the work process. Engineering controls are usually preferred to other control measures such as the use of personal protective equipment. Substitution of a less hazardous material or industrial process is the best way to reduce a hazard and is often considered to be a type of engineering control. 2, record 1, English, - engineering%20control

Les mesures d’ingénierie(parfois appelées mécanismes techniques) aident à réduire l'exposition au danger, que ce soit en isolant l'élément dangereux ou en l'éliminant du milieu de travail. On compte parmi les mesures d’ingénierie la ventilation mécanique et l'isolement du procédé. Ces mesures sont importantes parce qu'elles sont intégrées au procédé de travail. Il est ordinairement préférable d’appliquer des mesures d’ingénierie plutôt que d’autres mesures comme les équipements de protection individuelle. La meilleure façon de réduire le danger que présente une substance ou un procédé industriel est d’y substituer une substance ou un procédé moins dangereux. On considère souvent que la substitution est un genre de mesure d’ingénierie. 2, record 1, French, - mesure%20d%27ing%C3%A9nierie
