Risk Assessments, Method Statements & Site Safety
All field consultancy activities are governed by robust Risk Assessments and Method Statements (RAMS). Generic baseline RAMS are available below for client H&S review and are adapted into site-specific documentation prior to survey mobilisation.
Intrinsically Safe Instrumentation
Where flammable vapours, gases, or combustible dusts (e.g., wood dust, flour, solvent booths) present explosive atmosphere risks, intrinsically safe (IS / ATEX-certified) personal sampling pumps are deployed as standard.
Self-Sufficient Site Provision
The Principal Consultant arrives on site equipped with face-fit tested RPE (FFP3 / half-mask / powered air), hearing protection, safety footwear, high-visibility clothing, and industrial head/eye protection.
Permit-to-Work Integration
Full compliance with client Permit-to-Work (PTW) systems, Lockout/Tagout (LOTO) verification prior to internal LEV plant inspection, and dynamic point-of-work risk assessment before testing commences.

Workplace Exposure & Personal Air Monitoring Surveys
Covers the fitting of personal sampling trains to operatives, static background sampling, pump calibration, handling of chemical absorption media, and non-interference with live machinery.
Thorough Examination & Testing (TExT) of Local Exhaust Ventilation (LEV)
Covers safe access to ductwork test ports, thermal anemometry and Pitot-static traverses, qualitative smoke generation, electrical isolation awareness, and dust/ATEX zone precautions.
Occupational Noise & Hand-Arm / Whole-Body Vibration Assessments
Covers stand-off Class 1 sound level meter operation, personal noise dosimeter placement, triaxial accelerometer mounting, and maintaining safe exclusion zones around mobile plant and rotating equipment.
