Anticipate, identify, assess and control workplace health hazards
Occupational hygiene programmes aim to prevent illnesses and injuries arising from workplace hazards. Since the Occupational Health and Safety Act of 1993, occupational illness has been recognised alongside accident-related injury in South Africa.
Central to any survey is the micro-climate — an individual's immediate work environment — including personal dosimetry for noise, solvents, dust and toxic compounds.
- Indoor air quality and CO2
- Noise dosimetry and sound level surveys
- WBGT heat stress, temperature and humidity
- Light and air velocity measurements

What instruments are used in an occupational hygiene survey?
Common instruments include noise dosimeters and sound level meters, IAQ and CO2 meters, gas detectors, WBGT heat stress meters, lux meters and air velocity meters.
What is personal dosimetry?
Measuring an individual worker's exposure — for example with a noise dosimeter worn during a shift — rather than measuring the general area.
Can you calibrate hygiene instruments?
Yes. We calibrate noise, IAQ, heat stress and light instruments and issue certificates of conformance.
