Chemical Monitoring

Workplace exposure to airborne chemicals and contaminants can be complex and challenging to manage. Under the Occupational Health and Safety Regulations 2017, atmospheric monitoring is required when:

A substance has an exposure standard;
There is uncertainty about whether the standard may be exceeded; or
Monitoring is needed to assess potential health risks.
