Exposure Air Monitoring

What is exposure monitoring and why is it necessary?

Hazardous substances such as dusts, fumes, vapours, and gases can be generated from several processes in the workplace. Exposure monitoring is where the occupational hygienist conducts measurements to evaluate the risk to people being exposed to these substance(s). This is done with specialised monitoring equipment and work practice observations.
Exposure monitoring is necessary to determine the risk of both short and long-term harm. Typically, monitoring results are compared to the Workplace Exposure Standards and /or other relevant standards. If results reveal that harm is likely, controls are recommended (like using a different substance, ventilation, and personal protective equipment) to minimise the likelihood of harm.
