Occupational hygiene plays a vital role in ensuring our workplaces
are healthy and safe. Potential hazards such as chemicals, dusts,
gases, fumes, fibers, noise, vibration, and biological hazards such
as mold, fungi, bacteria, and viruses must ideally be eliminated or
effectively controlled. Now in its third edition Principles of
Occupational Health and Hygiene offers a systematic and
comprehensive overview of occupational health hazards and hazardous
environments encountered in a range of industries and
organizational settings. Leading industry professionals and
educators explain how to identify key workplace hazards including
chemical agents such as dusts, metals, and gases; physical agents
such as noise, radiation, and extremes of heat and cold; and
microbiological agents. They outline assessment procedures and
processes for identifying exposure levels. They also explain how to
evaluate risk and follow safety guidelines to control and manage
these hazards effectively. Chapters are heavily illustrated with
detailed case studies, diagrams, flowcharts, and photos. Practical
guidelines are provided for managing each hazard type. The third
edition has been extensively revised and updated and reflects the
Workplace Health and Safety legislation relating to the hazards
discussed. Principles of Occupational Health and Hygiene is an
ideal resource for students of Occupational Health and Safety, and
a professional reference for Occupational Hygienists, Occupational
Health and Safety professionals, and anyone working in an
Occupational Health and Safety role.
