Industrial Hygiene Vision Statement and Purposeall Starts with an AIHA, OSHA, and ACGIH Occupational Exposure Assessment Model

Industrial Hygiene Vision Statement and Purposeall Starts with an AIHA, OSHA, and ACGIH Occupational Exposure Assessment Model

• Your organizations need to be devoted to the anticipation, recognition, evaluation, and control of industrial hygiene factors arising in, or from the workplace, which may cause sickness, impaired health and well-being, or significant discomfort among workers and team members.

• Your organizations will need to evaluate on an annual basis, jobs, tasks, activities and products to determine the extent of employee exposure to hazards and decide what is needed to control these hazards to protect all team members.

• In 1989 AIHA/ACGIH/OSHA Published a Model that has since been updated four times to now include dermal hazards.

• The Model measures workplace hazards that can cause sickness, impaired health, or significant discomfort of workers through chemical, physical, ergonomic, or biological exposures. Our role as VPP Associates and Team Members is to identify, and quantify these conditions and help eliminate or control them through appropriate measures.

• You will need to use workplace industrial hygiene monitoring and analytical methods to detect and quantify the extent of worker chemical, physical, or biological exposures and recommend engineering, work practice controls, and other methods to control potential health hazards.

Industrial Hygiene Goals and ObjectivesIndustrial Hygiene Goals and Objectives

• Maintain Industrial Hygiene Compliance under the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) and National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH).

• Address strictly Company Employees for initial baseline.

• Comply with all OSHA/NIOSH/ACGIH Specific Standards and Regulations.

• Monitor and Document the Quantitative 95% Statistical Confidence that measures the extent of worker exposure.

• Recommend and help employ engineering, work practice controls, and other methods to control potential health hazards.

• Implement numerous “Best Practices” in the Field of Industrial Hygiene

So how do you implement all of this cost effectively?

By understanding the current regulatory environment.

How do you start? By Understanding GHSHow do you start? By Understanding GHS

• HCS – 1983: Recognized the importance of an international standard in the preamble

• Build-up to current GHS– Years of bilateral trade negotiations– 1992 United Nations mandate adopted at the “Earth Summit”– Negotiations over 10 years

• US supported the process and actively participated

• System available for adoption by competent authorities

What is the GHS?What is the GHS?

– A common, coherent approach to classifying and communicating chemical hazards

– Proposes:• Harmonized definitions of hazards • Specific criteria for labels • Harmonized format for safety data sheets

Use the New Law to Implement a Comprehensive Hygiene Program

• Conduct an Occupational Health Hazard Assessment. Take all SDS’s:– Scan– Link– Enter into Database– Document each of the following variables with each CAS#

• Evaluate all Chemical Hazards that exist as concentrations of mists, vapors, gases, fumes, or solids. Some are toxic through inhalation and some of them irritate the skin on contact; some can be toxic by absorption through the skin or through ingestion, and some are corrosive to living tissue. – Need to evaluate on site every new product MSDS’s/SDS’s break down

chemistry by CAS# and percent. This Occupational Health Hazard Assessment update will include evaluations of all jobs, operations, process, task, volume on site, department, closed or open system, pressurized or not, skin contact or not, PPE worn, frequency of task, number of workers involved, and duration of exposure.

– Compliance with 29 CFR 1910.1200 Hazard Communication.

Integrate Qualitative to QuantitativeIntegrate Qualitative to Quantitative

• Quantitative Measurement of Air Contaminants.The most common particulate contaminants include dusts, fumes, mists,

aerosols, and fibers. Dusts are solid particles that are formed or generated from solid organic or inorganic materials by reducing their size through mechanical processes such as crushing, grinding, drilling, abrading or blasting.

Fumes are formed when material from a volatilized solid condenses in cool air. In most cases, the solid particles resulting form the condensation react with air to form an oxide.

Mists are finely divided liquids suspended in the atmosphere. Mists are generated by liquids.

Fibers are solid particles whose length is several times greater than their diameter.

Gases are formless fluids that expand to occupy the space or enclosure in which they are confined (carbon monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, carbon dioxide).

Liquids change into vapors and mix with the surrounding atmosphere through evaporation. Vapors are the gaseous form of substances which are normally in the solid or liquid state at room temperature and pressure (paints, parts cleaning solvents).
