Industrial Hygiene

Industrial hygienists are committed to protecting the health and safety of people in the workplace and the community. Being an Industrial Hygienists is very demanding because there are so many responsibilities including monitoring indoor air quality, making recommendations on improving safety, anticipating and controlling potentially dangerous situations in the workplace and more.

Industrial Hygiene (IH) requires a lot of sampling, monitoring and inspecting. But these seemingly easy tasks can become overwhelming because task frequencies can change based on results. Correct sampling strategy and interpretation are essential elements of an IH survey. In order to make decisions about PPE and engineering controls, you have to have access to MSDS information as well as internal historical data and regulatory limits. How valuable would it be to you to have the sampling data from previous similar projects at your fingertips? Think of the money your company could save by being able to determine required engineering controls at the start of a project instead of at the completion of a project.

To assist in your day-to-day activities, you need a system that will track the many tasks must complete each day, like sampling and inspections. The system should not only capture the completion and results but generate recurring tasks based on those results. You should have easy access and visibility to the results of all of your sampling and monitoring. Having centralized access to this data will help you make decisions on engineering controls for future projects. Reporting and trending will save you time to focus on all those “little things” you never seem to have time for.

Save the company money by having better access to historical data. Make your environment safer by having better information on the hazards that affect employees and the community. Free up more time to focus on strategic activities.
