Occupational Hygiene

In every industry, safeguarding employees from unseen workplace hazards is a critical priority. Envirochem’s Occupational Hygiene services provide the expertise and tools you need to monitor and manage these risks effectively, ensuring the wellbeing of your team and compliance with health and safety regulations.

Key Services:

• Air Quality Assessments: Assess the exposure risk to dangerous particles such as silica, metals, fibres, and other harmful airborne contaminants, such as fume, mist, vapours and gases. Our tailored approach combines measurement of airborne concentrations with qualitative assessment tools to provide a holistic view of current exposure risks as well as the performance of existing controls. Bespoke services such as control audit reviews can then help you take the next proactive steps to protecting worker health.
• Noise Testing and Mapping: Evaluate the dangers of excessive noise exposure, delivering actionable recommendations to develop an effective noise-control strategy that mitigates hearing damage risks and falls in line with regulatory compliance. Additional services include noise mapping, which provides the means to visualise areas of risk, supporting you in designating targeted hearing protection zones and prioritising noise-reduction interventions. 
• Vibration Assessments: UK legislation requires employers to assess the risk of both hand-arm and whole-body vibration for workers using power tools, impact equipment or regularly driving forklifts or off-road vehicles. Our workplace vibration exposure assessments calculate exposures, take on-equipment measurements where necessary to understand real-world vibration, whilst also reviewing ergonomic contributing factors, providing the critical data you need to understand exposure and undertake a risk assessment.
• Metal Working Fluid Audits: With the complex nature and diverse health risks from metal working fluids, holistic assessment offers the best approach to determining exposure risk and efficacy of controls. Our audits use real-time measurement and qualitative assessment tools to benchmark where your current operations sit against regulatory expectations, providing actionable advice to reduce risk to your workforce.
