PHP offers several error handling mechanisms. These include using `try...catch` blocks for exceptions, checking return values of functions (many return `false` on failure), using `error_reporting()` and `error_handling()` to control error display and logging, and utilizing custom error handlers with `set_error_handler()`. Modern PHP development heavily favors exceptions for predictable error management.
