Requirement review
The workplace activity, hazard concern, location and intended outcome are discussed.
Occupational Hygiene Services
Workplace exposure assessment built around the hazard and the decision.
SHE Global provides inspection, monitoring and technical reporting across four approved occupational hygiene categories.
Approved Scope
Focused services for regulated workplace exposure concerns.
Occupational hygiene assessment provides evidence about hazards present in the workplace and the exposure employees might experience.
SHE Global’s current approved scope covers asbestos, lead, occupational noise and hazardous chemical agents.
Each engagement begins with the workplace requirement and the decision which the assessment needs to support.

Assessment Process
A structured route from enquiry to technical findings.
The precise assessment method depends on the hazard, workplace conditions, affected activities and required outcome.
Assessment planning
The inspection or monitoring approach is aligned with the relevant workplace conditions and hazard.
Workplace assessment
Inspection, measurement or exposure monitoring is completed according to the agreed requirement.
Technical reporting
Findings are documented to support control, compliance and operational decision-making.

Technical Reporting
Findings presented for practical workplace decisions.

Reporting should help the organisation understand the workplace conditions assessed, the exposure concern and the actions which require consideration.
The final scope and reporting format depend on the agreed service requirement and available workplace information.
