Travelers Industrial Hygiene Laboratory Seminars and Webinars

Overview

Do you have industrial hygiene projects that cannot be done because of scheduling, cost constraints or short staffing?

We have designed the Practical IH Seminars and IH Apprenticeship Program to help you become more self-sufficient in conducting your own IH sampling. In this way, you can manage your company's industrial hygiene needs to meet your budget, staffing, and schedules.

Our seminars include topics such as hazard recognition, sampling strategies and techniques, exposure evaluation and control interventions.

IH Seminars

Practical Industrial Hygiene Seminar

Travelers Industrial Hygiene Laboratory offers a comprehensive introduction to the fundamentals of Industrial Hygiene in this two-day seminar. Learn from practicing industrial hygienists about how to recognize, evaluate and control industrial hygiene-related exposures.

Upon completion of this seminar, attendees should be able to:

  • Recognize chemical and physical hazards
  • Develop effective action plans to control and minimize exposures
  • Develop a sampling strategy and select the proper sampling method, media and equipment
  • Calculate employee exposure levels from survey data
  • Determine the degree of exposure and recommend appropriate control measures
  • Evaluate the effectiveness of your industrial hygiene programs (such as hazard communication, respiratory protection and hearing conservation)
  • Operate various types of air sampling equipment

IH Apprenticeship Program

We will train your staff on the basics of  industrial hygiene to include such topics as:

IH hazard recognition, methods of air and noise sampling and how to determine proper sampling strategies. All courses are taught from a practical standpoint with emphasis on hands-on training. All courses are customized to deal with the specific hazards of your facilities.

800.842.0355: Our toll-free helpline is available to assist the IH apprentice with sample collection and hazard recognition. The helpline is staffed with experienced chemists and industrial hygienists to provide information on a variety of industrial hygiene topics.

Comprehensive Analytical Scan: We provide comprehensive analytical scanning for common organic solvents and vapors, as well as metals analyzed by ICP. After routine analysis, any significant extraneous metals or organic compounds observed are automatically identified.

Pump Loan Program: Your apprentice will have the necessary IH air sampling equipment to use free of charge. We will loan Gilian air sampling pumps, as well as calibrators, chargers and tubing to the IH apprentice.
