Course Description

 
This practical and highly-interactive course includes various practical sessions and exercises. Theory learnt will be applied using our state-of-the-art simulators. 
 
The course is a core module for the International Certi cate in Occupational Hygiene (ICertOHTA). It is designed to be delivered as a 5-day taught programme including participant’s assessment. 
 
The aim of the course is:- 
 
  • Describe how exposure to hazardous substances arises in the workplace
  • Build on knowledge of the methodologies and technologies available to control exposures and reduce risks to health.

 

On completing this course successfully, participants will be able to :-
 
 

  • Select control strategies and optimize control solutions for airborne contaminants.
  • Recognize the range of approaches to risk reduction embodied in the hierarchy of control and select appropriate strategies for implementation.
  • Describe the meaning of “adequate control” particularly for personal exposures; weigh design considerations in the workplace, process, and plant, as a means of reducing occupational exposures.
  • Describe the elements of a local exhaust ventilation system, recognize typical installations, know how to carry out the measurements to assess effectiveness and whether operating to the design specification.
  • Recognize the limitations of local exhaust hoods and enclosures and the means to optimize their effectiveness.
  • Further develop your knowledge of how personal protective equipment programmes may be used effectively.
  • Recognize the impact that control measures may have on other workplace hazards and understand how to take a holistic approach to the design of control solutions.

This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of Control of Hazardous Substances. It covers the workplace control principles, hierarchy of control and designing control strategies; the sources of contaminants, process designing and principles and ventilation systems; the principles of containment, types of containment equipment and designing of containment systems; using personal protective equipment covering respiratory protective equipment, chemical protective clothing, gloves and dermal care; and the administrative elements and practical applications of control strategies.
