This programme covers all the key concepts of industrial hygiene, including anticipating, recognising, evaluating, communicating, and control of workplace conditions that have the potential to cause occupational disease and illness. The programme is aimed at individuals and managers who wish to learn more about, or enhance their knowledge, industrial (occupational) hygiene.

the key elements covered include:

• Occupational hygiene programme principles
• Health hazards (biological, chemical, etc)
• Essential sciences (human anatomy, biology and chemical effects)
• Occupational diseases
• Health, sampling, measurement and evaluation techniques

• Obtain an in-depth knowledge of the industrial hygiene range of topics
• Learn about the different types of occupational diseases and illness conditions
• Understand how to anticipate, recognise, evaluate, communicate, and control workplace conditions
• Participate in case study exercises and group discussions regarding industrial hygiene management

Delegates will learn by active participation through interactive presentation tools, supported by videos, delegate exercises and case studies, in which delegates will learn the key elements of industrial hygiene, as related to the business activities of their particular organisation.

The purpose of this Industrial Hygiene training session is to provide delegates with the key principles and essential knowledge and skills to manage and monitor the professional practice of industrial hygiene, including anticipating, recognising, evaluating, communicating health risks and, the control of workplace conditions that have the potential to cause occupational disease and illness.
