Show Notes
In this episode host Mark Reggers is joined by fellow hygienist, Peter Aspinall. Peter is the Principal Occupational Hygiene Consultant with WSP and they focus their attention on the topic of occupational hygiene. Occupational hygiene is the practice of using science and engineering to anticipate, recognise, evaluate, control, and confirm the protection of workers from hazards in the workplace that may result in injury, illness, or affect the well-being of workers and the community at large. Occupational hygienists use their expertise to ensure the safety of workers' health from the hazardous agents in the workplace they must work with that have the potential to cause disease, discomfort and ill-health, now and into the future.
