Air Movement Systems staff have just undertaken their W201 Occupational Hygiene Course. 
On the 17th January, staff at Air Movement Systems took a 3 day course on Occupational Hygiene and all passed with flying colours. 
 
Course overview 
W201 Basic Principles of Occupational Hygiene training course has been developed by the International Occupational Hygiene Training Association (OHTA) for which BOHS is the UK examining board. It is an introductory course which outlines the broad principles of Occupational Hygiene in the workplace. 
 
W201 Course Content

The range of hazards [physical and chemical] in the workplace 
Hazard recognition techniques 
Sources and potential routes of exposure 
Hazard evaluation, exposure assessment and the measurement processes

We would like to thank Hazel at OXYL8 for the training and helping us all pass this course.
