Description

        The course is a core module for the International Occupational
Hygiene Certificate. It is designed to be delivered as a 5-day
taught programme including student assessment.

*Describe how airborne contaminants are generated by
industrial processes, how this impacts on the control strategy, and
how control solutions can thereby be optimized

*Recognize the range of approaches to risk reduction embodied
in the hierarchy of control and select appropriate strategies for
implementation

*Describe the meaning of ―adequate control, particularly in
relation to personal exposures

*Discuss the importance of design considerations in terms of the
workplace, process, and plant, as a means of reducing occupational
exposures.

*Describe the principal elements of a local exhaust ventilation
system, give examples of typical installations and know how to carry
out the necessary measurements to assess whether a local exhaust
ventilation system is effective and operating to the design specification;
which will include and understanding of how to optimize control
provided by such systems.
