The purpose of this five-day intensive training is to provide participants with the knowledge and understanding of industrial hygiene and occupational health issues and their solutions. Industrial hygiene and occupational health are about the effect on the health and well-being of employees and contractors who carry out process tasks and/or who are exposed to industrial processes. Industrial hygiene and occupational health programs play a vital role in helping organizations care for and understand the occupational health risks to their employees, enabling them to protect them and, subsequently reduce sickness absence levels and optimize employee performance.

Industrial hygiene and occupational health is a vital component of an organization’s health and safety management system for the effective management of operational risks.
