Learn how to effectively utilize exposure monitoring results to reduce the potential health risks.
Major decisions on employee health protection, exposure controls, and respiratory protection are made on the outcome of exposure assessment findings.
However, we have learned that more than 50% of exposure assessment results are not reliable, representative, or reproducible from industrial hygiene assessment conducted at 300+ sites in 30+ countries.
Join us for lessons learned from this extensive research and to discuss quality assurance approaches to quantitative exposure assessment.
Who Will Benefit
Mid-career to senior IH/OEHS professionals responsible for quantitative exposure assessment monitoring and interpreting results.
Learning Objectives
Identify approaches to reliable, reproducible, and representative exposure monitoring based on lessons learned
Implement quantitative exposure assessment strategy (task-based vs full shift, personal vs. area samples, 1 sample vs. 3-6 samples, exposure duration vs. sampling duration)
Identify and address unique exposure monitoring challenges (avoiding breakthrough, ensuring LOQ <1/10 of OEL)
Identify and address unique sample analysis and result in interpretation challenges
