Which is NOT a method of reducing exposure to hazardous substances mentioned in the text?

  1. Installation of advanced security systems

  2. Substitution of a hazardous substance with a safer one

  3. Installation of engineering controls and devices

  4. Changes in job design, work practices, and work organization

The correct answer is: Installation of advanced security systems

The other options mentioned (B, C, D) are all methods for reducing exposure to hazardous substances. Option A may seem like a logical answer since security systems can prevent people from accessing hazardous substances, but it is not a direct method of reducing exposure to the substances themselves. Instead, it focuses on restricting access to the substances.
