SERVICES
Occupational hygiene services
From board-level governance and expert evidence to monitoring and training, every service is scoped to the risks you face and the decisions you need to make.
01
Health risk governance
Occupational hygiene systems that hold up at every level of an organisation. We work alongside executives, boards and health and safety teams, in your offices, remotely or embedded within your team. No site fieldwork is required.
Health risk governance frameworks. Structures and reporting that give the board a clear line of sight to material health risks and how they are controlled.
Project-based secondments. A Certified Occupational Hygienist embedded in your organisation to review, refine and establish sophisticated occupational hygiene systems.
Implementation training. Training for leaders, specialists and the front line so new systems, procedures and responsibilities are understood and used.
Compliance reviews and regulatory support. Gap assessments against WHS obligations, and support when a regulator is involved.
Advisory boards. Occupational hygiene expertise on advisory and technical committees.
02
Expert witness and independent review
Independent, evidence-based opinion from a Certified Occupational Hygienist for legal practitioners, insurers, regulators and organisations that need an objective second view.
Expert witness services. Expert reports and evidence on workplace exposures and occupational hygiene practice, prepared in line with the applicable court’s expert witness code of conduct.
Independent critical review. Review of exposure assessments, monitoring reports, sampling strategies and control programs by a Certified Occupational Hygienist.
Investigations. Investigations into exposure incidents, worker health concerns and complaints, with findings you can rely on.
03
Health risk management
Health risk assessment is the foundation of an effective occupational health program. We identify the hazards, group workers by similar exposure, and verify that critical controls are working.
