WHAT IS INDUSTRIAL HYGIENE
IDENTIFICATION,
EVALUATION, &
CONTROL OF
TOXIC SUBSTANCES & HARMFUL PHYSICAL AGENTS
IN THE WORKPLACE &
IN THE ENVIRONMENT

• TOXIC SUBSTANCES– CHEMICALS– MICROBIOLOGICAL AGENTS
• HARMFUL PHYSICAL AGENTS– NOISE– RADIATION– ERGONOMICS/REPETITIVE MOTION– HOT & COLD ENVIRONMENTS

Occupational Health Team
• Occupational Physicians - Dr. Compton• Industrial or ”occupational” Hygienists • Occupational Health Nurse• Microbiologist• Engineers• Safety Personnel• Ergonomists• Chemists & Lab Personnel• radiation, toxicology, epidemiology
![Page 8: PMCH 600 INDUSTRIAL HYGIENE October 23, 2006 R. Leonard Vance, Ph.D., CIH](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649ce05503460f949a97a6/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Industrial Hygiene Subject Matter• What, How much, What is to be done???• Identification of Hazards
– experience– study– defined by client
• Evaluation of Hazards– Monitoring: sample collection & analysis
• Control of Hazards– engineering, admin., work practices, PPE
![Page 9: PMCH 600 INDUSTRIAL HYGIENE October 23, 2006 R. Leonard Vance, Ph.D., CIH](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649ce05503460f949a97a6/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Why Learn about IH
• Prevent injury and illness!• Why learn about public health? • Protect Safety & Health of Workers/Public• Deal with public concerns/hysteria• Avoid Liability• Promote Harmony; Reduce Acrimony
– workers– management– community– government
![Page 10: PMCH 600 INDUSTRIAL HYGIENE October 23, 2006 R. Leonard Vance, Ph.D., CIH](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649ce05503460f949a97a6/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Typical IH Problems
• Survey flooded building for mold
• Health Hazard Survey in factory
• Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) evaluation
• Monitor asbestos/Pb removal at VCU
• Lead Inspection - adult/child protection
• Noise survey, printing plant
• OSHA/EPA Compliance consultation
