Introduction
We provide complete solutions for the recognition, evaluation, and control of occupational exposures to chemicals, noise, heat stress, and ergonomic risks. Our emphasis is on the protection of employees, contractors, and visitors and on the reduction of health risks and liabilities. We provide a wide range of industrial hygiene assessments, from qualitative and quantitative exposure evaluations to custom risk management strategies, ensuring compliance with local and industry standards.
Exposure Assessment & Control
- Qualitative Exposure Assessment: Assesses exposure to harmful substances (chemicals, noise, heat stress, and ergonomics) with an assessment of compliance to industrial standards
- Quantitative Exposure Assessment: Carry out chemical sampling, noise dosimetry, and heat stress using regional and NIOSH guidelines with OSHA and ACGIH to determine risk.
- Exposure Control Plans: Develop plans to control or minimize exposure through the implementation of engineering controls, work practices, personal protective equipment, and medical surveillance.
Programs & Validation
- Industrial Hygiene Programs: Implement site-specific programs for risk anticipation, exposure control, and medical surveillance to promote worker safety and health.
- Respiratory Protection: Design respiratory protection programs; hazard determination; respirator selection; fit testing and training.
- Heat Stress Prevention: Task-specific management of heat stress based on guidelines from WBGT/Heat Index; assessment; control plans and evaluation.
- Engineering Control Validation: Validate local exhaust systems and fume hoods for proper capture velocities and minimize exposure.
