An initial site evaluation may be due to an illness, spill, or accident. It may be a proactive measure or regulatory requirement in an uneventful industrial setting. Workplace exposures occur under many circumstances. Identifying these exposures involves recognition of causes.

Industrial processes that involve the use of chemicals, or are associated with physical hazards, can be assessed using both on-site and laboratory monitoring techniques. DirectCIH has many direct-reading instruments and long experience in acquiring solid data quickly.

The types and amounts of hazardous waste generated, processed, stored, and transported at a facility has a significant bearing on assessing worker exposure. Hazardous waste is closely controlled under EPA regulations as well as under OSHA, since many Subpart Z chemicals are hazardous waste.
