What is occupational hygiene?
Occupational Hygiene is the science behind workplace health and safety. Occupational hygienists are able to:
- Anticipate and recognise how a workplace hazard may affect or impact on the body
- Evaluate the workplace hazard through measurement
- Recommend controls based on the hazard and thus provide solutions for protection
