Additional Services

In addition to the main services provided by Industrial Hygiene Services we also provide many other useful consultancy services to help our clients manage their particular health risks.

Asbestos

Exposure to asbestos can have a serious impact on the health of humans. The identification and management of asbestos containing materials is extremely important.

Face-fit testing

Respiratory protective equipment will only provide the expected protection for each individual if it is correctly fitted. This can only be verified by Face-Fit testing. 

PPE & RPE advice and guidance

Personal protective equipment is designed to control exposure to specific hazards. Using the correct PPE is extremely important, particularly as it is often the last line of defence.

Heat stress management

The human body is designed to operate in an extremely narrow temperature range. Ensuring that this range is maintained is extremely important.

Fatigue management

Remaining alert while at work, particularly in a safety critical role requires fatigue levels to be managed effectively. This management can be particularly challenging during some shift patterns.

Ergonomic Risk Reduction

Many working days are lost each year due to musculoskeletal ill health. The effective management of Ergonomic risk factors can significantly reduce the discomfort of workers and absenteeism. 

Lighting

For workers to preform efficiently and safely in the workplace lighting levels must be within the correct range. Workplace light surveys ensure that light sources are correctly placed to provide acceptable levels.

Remote advice and support

It is sometimes logistically difficult to mobilise personnel to remote worksites but the provision of advice and guidance by means other than face to face can help ensure that the correct steps are taken to prevent ill health.
