Indoor and task‑based air quality influences worker comfort, safety and long‑term health. We assess airborne contaminants (gases, vapours and particulates) against Workplace Exposure Limits (WEL) and provide targeted controls. Typical focus areas include carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen dioxide (NO₂), ozone, VOCs, and particulate matter from engines and processes. Sampling strategies may consist of static monitors or personal sampling pumps. Where inhalable or respirable dust is of concern, we use IOM samplers as described in our inhalable dust monitoring guide: filters are loaded into the cartridge, pumps are calibrated at 2.0 L/min, and sampling heads are positioned in the breathing zone of workers.

What we do:

•              Screening and targeted sampling using calibrated direct‑read instruments and gravimetric methods.

•              Task‑based monitoring (maintenance bays, welding bays, tunnels, confined spaces) aligned with safe systems of work.

•              Controls – provide recommendations based on SWA and/or State Regulators' guidance and instructions, with consideration of national and international standards.

Why it matters:

Diesel exhaust, welding fumes and other airborne contaminants can irritate the eyes and lungs, and long‑term exposure is linked to heart and lung disease and cancers. We apply Safe Work Australia guidance to quantify risks and design controls that actually fit your operation.

Deliverables:

A concise, plain‑English report comparing measured levels to WEL, with control priorities, ventilation recommendations and PPE selection (AS/NZS 1716/1715).
