HYGIENE
The aim of the Industrial Hygiene
program is to reduce the risk to the university community of
incurring adverse health effects. Work is directed a minimizing the
hazards associated with improper ventilation and chemical handling;
and excessive chemical, noise, and temperature exposures. Toward
this end, laboratories and fume hoods are inspected annually, odor
complaints are investigated, and industrial hygiene surveys are made
routinely and on request. Personnel in this area work closely with
the Occupational Health Physician at the University Health Services.
In addition, a laboratory safety seminar and monthly safety
workshops are offered. |
