WHAT IS OCCUPATIONAL HYGIENE

Occupational hygiene is concerned with the recognition, evaluation and control of environmental factors that affect the health and wellbeing of people at work.

    These include:
  • Hazardous chemicals, including dusts, fumes, gases and vapours
  • High levels of noise or hand-arm vibration
  • Microbiological agents, including fungi, moulds and bacteria
  • Extremes of heat or cold in the workplace

HOW CAN WE HELP?

Modern health and safety legislation is increasingly complex and diverse. Some regulations require specialist knowledge to make risk assessments that are suitable and sufficient. Frequent changes in requirements mean that managers – especially in small and medium sized businesses – find it difficult to keep up to date.

OHS Scotland can guide organizations through the risk assessment jungle. We are experienced in assessing risks from a wide variety of workplace hazards – everything from chemical handling to noise. We have up-to-date monitoring equipment and access to the latest information databases.

You can rely on us.
