Industrial Hygiene is the art and science of identifying and controlling workplaces stressors that can cause illness or disease. These illnesses can develop from low level exposures over the course of many years. Many of these low-level exposures need sensitive equipment used by a trained industrial hygienist to identify and quantify worker exposure levels compared to established exposure guidelines.
We can help with Industrial Hygiene Exposure Assessments such as
- Area Noise Surveys and Personal Noise Dosimetry.
- Heat Stress monitoring using WBGT Instruments.
- Ionizing Radiation, Non-Radiation, and Electromagnetic Radiation Surveys.
- Hand and Arm Vibration Surveys and Evaluation.
- Air Sampling for Chemical Contaminants like Cleaning Solvents, Paint, Ink, Fuels, and more.
- Air Sampling and Real-Time Monitoring for Dust, Fumes, and Mists like Respirable Silica, Welding Fumes, Machine Shop Metal Working Fluids.
- Sampling for Carbon Monoxide exposure associated with forklift operations.
- Indoor Air Quality evaluations for mold and odor complaints.
- Fume Hood Testing and Local Exhaust Ventilation Evaluations.
- Office and Workstation Evaluations for Repetitive Stress and improved Ergonomic Function.
