Industrial Hygiene
INDUSTRIAL HYGIENE:
Indoor Air Quality is receiving more attention
because building construction methods have
reduced the introduction of fresh air in order
to conserve energy. New construction technology
has aggravated the indoor air pollutants such
as radon, cleaning compound fumes, carbon
monoxide, carbon dioxide, nitrogen dioxide,
spores and fungi and formaldehyde. Air
pollutants have always existed but now are
creating the sick building syndrome. Cole and Associates uses
a variety of techniques to determine the source
of the pollutants and design a solution.
- Indoor Air Quality Investigations
- Emission Source Sampling
- Ambient Air Monitoring
- Air and Water Pollution Engineering
- Ionizing Radiation Measurement and Control
- Right-to-Know Program Development
- Environmental Health Training Programs
- Compliance Audits (OSHA, EPA, MSHA)
WORK PLACE HAZARDS:
Identified work place hazards are increasing
at an alarming rate. Some of these hazards are
new and some, which have always existed, are
just now being identified. There is growing
regulatory and employee pressure to confront
these issues. The hazard can be chemical,
physical, biological, or even psychological.
They all are real. Some of the more common
problems involve radon, formaldehyde, asbestos,
airborne microbes and noise. These somewhat
innocuous sounding problems can cost your
employee's health and present a clear liability
for the business if not solved. Our staff if
prepared to assist with the following services:
- Noise measurements
- Safety and O & M Procedures
- Hazard Communications Programs
- Personal Protective Equipment Recommendations
- Compliance Audits
