Occupational Hygiene Consultants

Occupational Hygiene Consultants

Occupational hygienist consultants get involved at the interface of people and their workplaces. They use science and engineering to prevent ill health caused by the work environment - specialising in the assessment and control of risks to health from workplace exposure to hazards. Hygienists help employers and employees to understand these risks and to minimize or eliminate them. Occupational hygiene consultants are trained to anticipate, recognise, evaluate, communicate and control possible incidents and or hazards which may harm workers or other people who may be in the vicinity.

Occupational hygienist consultants can come from many backgrounds - chemists, engineers, biologists, physicists, doctors, nurses and others who have chosen to apply their skills to improving working practices and conditions. At their core is occupational hygiene - where science and engineering meet the human element of work.
