Occupational & Industrial Hygiene
The field of occupational or industrial hygiene is a discipline that has evolved over the past 100 years to manage occupational health and safety of workers. It has become the science and art of anticipation, recognition, evaluation and control of environmental hazards or stresses arising in the workplace that cause illness, impaired health, or wellbeing, or cause significant discomfort and inefficiency.
