Workplace air monitoring
Helping you identify and control airborne hazards to protect employees, ensuring compliance to COSHH Regulations 2002
According to the Health and Safety Executive (HSE), an estimated 13,000 people in the UK die from occupational exposure to harmful substances.
Employers must ensure that workplace air monitoring is undertaken to ensure adequate control (Reg 10 of the COSHH Regulations 2002).
Your employees may be exposed to airborne substances on a regular basis that are potentially hazardous to their health.
Examples of airborne substances
- Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs)
- Isocyanates
- Total inhalable dusts
- Respirable dusts
- Ozone
- Welding fume
The services we provide will:
- Provide you with an accurate identification and calculation of airborne concentrations of hazardous substances in the workplace
- Provide a direct comparison of personal exposure concentrations against current Workplace Exposure Limits (WELs)
- Identify background concentrations to assess the effectiveness of engineering controls (such as Local Exhaust Ventilation (LEV))
- Document realistic recommendations for improvement to ensure a reduction of exposure to your employees
