Description
Industrial hygiene is the anticipation, recognition, evaluation, and control of hazards at work
that may result in injury/illness or affect the wellbeing of workers. Industrial hygienists use
strict scientific methodology and professional judgment when determining the potential for
hazardous exposure risks in the workplace. Their goal is to prevent industrial disease, using
the science of risk management, exposure assessment, and industrial safety. In this course,
we'll talk about what a Certified Industrial Hygienist (CIH) is, and the categories of hazards
they face. We'll list the people a CIH works with to make their determinations, as well as
discuss their process for handling hazards.
