INDUSTRIAL HYGIENE

Industrial Hygiene is a critical aspect of managing worksite health and safety. Occupational Hygiene covers a wide range of health and safety hazards, including physical, chemical, biological and psychosocial hazards. Industrial hygienists focus on sampling of hazardous materials and determining worksite safety. Environmental factors in the workplace can lead to injury or illness. Industrial Hygiene includes the use of environmental monitoring and data analysis to determine worker exposure to occupational hazards, which may include chemical, physical, ergonomic, or biological exposures.   

IRWIN'S can help you improve your site's industrial hygiene. Our industrial hygienists are health and safety experts with many years of industry experience who can work with you to review your worksites and develop plans to improve processes and the overall health and safety on the worksite. Our experts will recommend controls based on the testing results to reduce worker exposure to hazards. Engineering controls are used to eliminate or isolate the hazard, work practice controls alter the manner in which a task is performed to mitigate various risks, administrative controls may be used to reduce hazard exposure, and Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) may be used in conjunction with other controls.
