Industrial Hygiene
According to OSHA, workplace injuries, illnesses and deaths cost our nation $170 billion every year. One study estimates that a good safety and health program can save $4 to $6 for every $1 invested. That’s because injuries and illnesses decline, workers’ compensation costs go down, and medical costs decrease. There are other, less quantifiable benefits as well – reduced absenteeism, lower turnover, higher productivity and increased morale.
What can industrial hygiene do for you?
The science of industrial hygiene is designed to anticipate, recognize, evaluate and control any of the environmental factors arising in the workplace that may cause sickness, impaired health, or significant discomfort among your workers.
Reduce or eliminate hazards at the source:
- Isolate workers from the hazard.
- Eliminate toxic chemicals and recommend substitute non-toxic chemicals.
- Enclose work processes or confine work operations.
- Install general and local ventilation systems.
