Course Description

This practical and highly-interactive course includes various practical sessions and exercises. Theory learnt will be applied using our state-of-the-art simulators.

This course aims to provide candidates with an outline to the general approach advocated for the assessment of the health risk(s) associated with exposure to hazardous substances and then focuses in detail on the role and application of atmospheric monitoring.

It addresses the theory of sampling, practical sampling and analytical considerations and the calculation and presentation of results. Numerical calculations are included to ensure that the underlying principles are understood. It covers principles of occupational hygiene on the basis of anticipation, recognition, evaluation and control of hazards that can be encountered in the workplace.

This course will require at least 45 hours of study time, of which at least 37 hours will be taught (teaching and practical assessments) and 8 hours will be independent (in the candidates’ own time).

On Completing this course successfully, participants will be able to:-

Describe the general approach to health risk assessment, including the role of atmospheric monitoring
Select appropriate equipment to measure specific airborne contaminants and devise a suitable sampling strategy
Present the results in a form useful for health risk assessment purposes to enable management to comply with relevant legislation

During this interactive course, participants will learn the risk assessment process and information gathering; the workplace sampling strategies, survey design and personal and area sampling; the surface and other measurements and confined spaces; the sampling pumps, sampling heads and filters and direct reading instruments; the calibration of air sampling equipment; the trace level analytical methods, gravimetric analysis, microscopy and quality assurance of analysis; the hygiene standards and biological monitoring; and the calculation, interpretation and presentation of results.
