Which of the following is NOT a type of control measure under Class 314?

• A. Engineering controls
• B. Administrative controls
• C. Personal protective equipment
• D. Emergency response drills

Answer: (D)

The concept being tested is what counts as a control measure for reducing risk under Class 314. In this framework, control measures are the ways the workplace directly reduces exposure to hazards: engineering controls modify the work environment to remove or lessen the hazard, administrative controls change how work is done to minimize exposure, and personal protective equipment provides a barrier between the worker and the hazard.

Emergency response drills, while essential for preparedness and response capability, do not directly reduce the hazard during normal operations. They’re about how to react after an incident and how to mitigate consequences, not about preventing exposure or controlling the hazard at source or through work practices. That’s why drills don’t fit the category of a control measure.

So, the option that does not belong as a control measure under Class 314 is emergency response drills.
