In addition to that it is often best to call your Power Shell script via a .bat file. E.g.

Have a Control-M job that is a "command" and has this in the command field -

C:\Program Files\BMC Software\Control-M Agent\Default\Scripts\PS_log_check.bat

The .bat file should then point to your Power Shell script -

powershell -command "& 'C:\Program Files\BMC Software\Control-M Agent\Default\Scripts\PS_log_check.ps1'"
