Industrial Hygiene Audit

An Industrial Hygiene Audit is a systematic evaluation of an organisation's management of workplace health hazards — covering the identification, assessment, control, and monitoring of chemical, physical, and biological agents that may affect worker health.

The audit examines the adequacy of existing hazard controls — engineering controls, administrative controls, and personal protective equipment — alongside the organisation's hygiene monitoring programme, health surveillance arrangements, and compliance with applicable occupational exposure standards.

It is applicable across manufacturing, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, construction, and any industry where workers are routinely exposed to occupational health hazards — providing management with an independent assessment of hygiene programme effectiveness and compliance status.
