Chemical exposure

A new one day course on Chemical
Exposure Management integrates all
three routes of exposure (inhalation,
ingestion and skin) into one
comprehensive approach to the risk
assessment and exposure
management of chemicals in the
workplace.

To facilitate it the EnviroDerm
Services team Chris Packham and Dr.

Helen Taylor have joined forces with
Paul Leadbetter, an extremely
experienced occupational hygienist.

The course will provide an insight
into the way in which the body
responds to exposure to chemicals,
how to identify hazards and assess
the risk that these could cause
damage to health. It will demonstrate
practical methods of controlling
exposure, using technical/engineering
techniques as well as the selectionof
PPE. The next course is in December.
