 What is Industrial Hygiene? The
anticipation, recognition, evaluation,
and control of environmental factors in
the workplace that may result in injury,
illness, impairment, or affect the wellbeing of workers
 Industrial hygienists utilize engineering,
work practice, and administrative
controls as the primary means of
reducing employee exposure to
occupational hazards
If you suspect a
hazardous condition
is present in your
workplace or just
have a question or
concern, contact us
to perform an
evaluation. We are
dedicated to the wellbeing of the UAF
community.

 Ergonomics is an applied science that coordinates the design of
devices, systems and physical working conditions with the
capacities and requirements of the worker. So
If something in your workspace doesn’t feel right
- you probably need an ergonomic assessment

 Workstation Evaluations
 Corrective Actions and Recommendations
 Don’t postpone calling if something
hurts – we may be able to help
