Atmospheric Contaminants
Modern workplace processes generate a variety of airborne contaminants that require assessment & possible control.
Contamination may be a direct product of chemicals in use, or bi-products of a particular process. Using modern equipment and targeted monitoring techniques we can evaluate risk and recommend control strategies for a range of contaminants including;
• Inhalable Dusts
• Respirable Dusts & Silica
• Volatile Organic Compounds
• Welding fume
• Diesel Particulate Matter
• Metalloid particulates
• Lead
• Asbestos & Synthetic Mineral Fibres
• Bio-aerosol monitoring: bacteria, yeasts & moulds
• Spray booth ventilation assessments
• Confined space airborne assessments
Noise
Noise is a prevalent risk in many workplaces.
Whether conducting an occupational assessment to protect your workers, or an environmental survey to meet your license compliance obligations, Field Enviro can offer a comprehensive assessment program for your workplace including;
• Occupational noise assessments
• Personal noise dosimetry
• In-cabin noise assessment
• Noise control & attenuation studies
• Hearing protection assessment
(Class, SLC80 & Octave Band Methods)
• Environmental noise assessments
(LGA/DERM license requirements)
• Building tenancy assessments
Vibration
Exposure to vibration is an emerging issue for workplaces where individuals are required to operate powered plant and equipment.
Field Enviro can not only assess the magnitude of risk posed by these, but work in tandem with our in-house engineers to develop design and engineering solutions for;
• Whole body vibration
• Hand arm vibration
• Building vibration
Lighting
The impact of poor lighting in workplaces is significant. From productivity losses to being a contributing factor in workplace incidents the effects that poor lighting can have are so often under-estimated.
Field Enviro can assess to meet Australian Standards compliance criteria for illuminance and provide services including;
• Lighting for safe access & movement
• Workstation assessment
• Task lighting studies
• Lighting uniformity calculation
Thermal
Heat stress and strain is a key factor in safe worker performance and productivity. Workers in tropical and sub-tropical outdoor environments are at-risk populations for heat stress.
Field Enviro can provide a holistic assessment of your heat stress risks using monitoring and observational techniques such as;
• Thermal stress assessments
• Wet Bulb Globe Thermometer
• Personal heat stress monitoring
• Risk assessment & control strategies
