Workplace health hazards are broadly covered under:
- Chemical: gases, vapors, dusts, fumes
- Physical: noise, vibration, temperature, radiation
- Biological: bacteria , fungi, virus, insects
- Ergonomics: stress, workload, work organizations
An industrial hygiene survey and evaluation is useful for organizations to:
- Identify and quantify specific contaminants that may be present in the work environment.
- Assess compliance with respect to various occupational health standards.
- Determine exposure in response to complaints.
- Generate environmental data in conjunction with an interface with medical and/or epidemiological efforts.
- Evaluate the effectiveness of engineering controls.
