exposure control

Brightness adjustment setting

Exposure control refers to systems and practices for managing how much of something potentially harmful reaches people or equipment.

In photography and videography, it means adjusting settings like aperture, shutter speed, and ISO to regulate how much light hits the sensor.

In occupational safety, exposure control encompasses procedures to minimize workers' contact with hazardous substances, pathogens, or radiation.

The hospital updated its exposure control plan after new OSHA guidelines came out.
