Industrial Hygiene Program
ESH Manual Chapter 5 has been revoked.
The Industrial Hygiene Program at SLAC encompasses multiple
programs that anticipate health and safety concerns and design
solutions through the application of scientific principles.
Typical SLAC Industrial Hygiene health and safety challenges
include:
- Biohazardous materials
- Detection and control of potential occupational hazards
(noise, heat stress, insufficient illumination)
- Indoor air quality
- Non-ionizing Radiation (electromagnetic fields,
microwaves)
- Potentially hazardous agents (asbestos, beryllium, lead,
nanomaterials)
- Setting limits on exposure to chemical and physical agents
For industrial hygiene assistance, please contact your
ESH Coordinator.
If warranted, they will arrange services with the Industrial Hygiene
department.
For facilities related questions, please contact your Building
Manager (such as testing of the fume hood and emergency eyewash and
shower stations, etc.)
