Occupational Hygienist Assessments

We are experts in providing occupational hygienist assessments. The Health and Safety at Work Act 2015 states that PCBUs have the duty of care to ensure, so far as reasonably practical, that the workplace does not risk the health and safety of any person. Aerem Environmental can help by evaluating your workplace for health hazards and giving practical advice on how to take appropriate remedial action to reduce these risks.

Why Get An Occupational Hygienist Assessment?

  • Worker Health and Safety: Occupational hygienist assessments prioritise the health and safety of workers by identifying and mitigating workplace hazards.

  • Legal Compliance: These assessments ensure compliance with New Zealand’s health and safety regulations, reducing the risk of legal liabilities for employers.

  • Risk Identification: They help identify potential health risks in the workplace, such as noise monitoring, exposure to dust and chemical hazards and indoor air quality.

  • Preventive Measures: By identifying workplace hazards early, occupational hygienist assessments enable the implementation of preventive measures to minimise health risks and prevent occupational illnesses.

  • Improved Productivity: A safe and healthy work environment leads to improved productivity, because workers are less likely to be absent due to work-related illnesses or injuries.

  • Employee Morale: Providing a safe workplace environment boosts employee morale and satisfaction, leading to increased retention and a positive company culture.

Noise Monitoring

In any workplace, noise can be a significant health hazard. Our occupational hygienists are skilled in evaluating the amount of noise that workers are exposed too through thorough assessments.

We provide recommendations to minimise this exposure, and advise on the correct Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) to wear. This proactive approach is crucial in protecting worker health and ensuring a safer, more comfortable work environment.

Worksafe outline the legal requirements for noise levels in the workplace.

Dust & Chemical Hazards

Workplaces can also be prone to inhalable dust and chemical hazards, including crystalline silica, diesel particulates, solvents, and metals. All these are biological hazards to health.

Our occupational hygiene services include monitoring these hazardous substances and offering expert advice on how to eliminate, isolate, or minimise these hazards.

By doing this risk assessment, we contribute to maintaining a healthy working environment and safeguarding your workforce against potential health issues.

Check out the Health and Safety at Work (Hazardous Substances) Regulations 2017 to find out the legal requirements for your workplace.

Indoor Air Quality

The quality of air in indoor spaces, such as offices and other workplaces, is a significant aspect of occupational hygiene. Factors affecting indoor air quality can lead to various airborne hazards among your workforce. These include fatigue, headaches, trouble concentrating, and irritation of the eyes, nose, throat, and lungs.

Our occupational hygienists are equipped to assess these factors and recommend solutions to improve indoor air quality, ensuring a healthier, more productive workplace.

Standards NZ provides more information about the acceptable level of indoor air quality.
