In today's episode of Transmit Safety, join Aimee and Lisa Marinic to learn all you need to know about industrial hygiene as a Health & Safety practitioner.When you're going into Health & Safety and you're going out into the field for the first time, it's easy to notice safety hazards. They're visible, clear, and very easily actionable so, of course, they get a lot more attention.But, today we're going to talk about the completely invisible health hazards that despite being harder to notice can be just as dangerous or fatal as their counterparts.Lisa Marinic is a Certified Industrial Hygienist (CIH) and a CRSP. She has spent the last two decades studying and working in the field of industrial hygiene and occupational health and is a passionate advocate for workplace health. In this episode, she is here to educate us on health hazards, industrial hygiene, and what we, as Health & Safety practitioner and professionals, can do to help.In this episode, you'll learn:What Industrial Hygiene is exactly and why should you careWhy industrial hygienists are not common in most industriesThe importance of Health & Safety professionals in leadership roles for  industrial hygieneWhat bringing in an industrial hygienist can do for your organization and what to look forThe challenging conversations around health hazardsHow Health & Safety practitioners can start addressing health hazardsThe Transmit Safety Podcast is here to help health and safety practitioners achieve a holistic approach to workplace health and safety so they can become impactful leaders and put the value of safety into action.

On this episode of IAQ Radio Tony Havics, PE, CIH, CHMM, Wane Baker, PE, CIH and Tom Yacobellis joined us to discuss the reason particles behave the way they do, the challenges in determining how well we are capturing these particles, and the limitations of our instruments and equipment when it comes to particle capture and measurement. The committee working on the standard for in-field testing of Air Filtration Devices has been somewhat snake bitten and stalled but I spoke to the committee chair (Tom Yacobellis) and he is going to put a final push on to try and complete this much needed standard. In spite of not having a completed standard the information discussed on this show gives great guidance for how to handle the issue until the final standard comes out and it's definitely worthy of re-broadcast. Andrew Anthony "Tony" Havics, P.E., CIH, CHMM -Mr. Havics is an Honors graduate from Georgia Institute of Technology with a Bachelor's Degree in Mechanical Engineering. He is a Certified Hazardous Materials Manager (CHMM), a Certified Industrial Hygienist (CIH), and a registered Professional Environmental Engineer (PE) with nearly 25 years of experience in environmental, health and safety consulting. He is the Past Chair of the American Industrial Hygiene Association (AIHA) Workplace Environmental Exposure Limit (WEEL) Committee that has set over 100 exposure limits for hazardous agents. Wane A. Baker, P.E., CIH -Mr. Baker is currently the Training Manager at Trane Graduate Training Program. He is a graduate of the Institute of Technology at the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities and is a licensed Professional Engineer (P.E.) and Certified Industrial Hygienist (CIH) with 35 years of experience in the operation, maintenance and evaluation of various building types. This includes more than 30 years at a professional level in environmental consulting, construction and energy conservation. He has worked as an IEQ / EH&S professional on a full-time basis for the past 20 years. Tom Yacobellis -Tom has 25 years experience in the design, installation, and restoration of HVAC systems and 20 years specifically in the HVAC remediation industry. Prior to becoming President of DUCTZ National Service Team, Tom was Founder and President of DUCTBUSTERS�®. He was responsible for developing the largest independent network of licensed HVAC contractors dedicated to total system cleaning and restoration. He has served as President of the Indoor Air Quality Association (IAQA) and also served on numerous other industry boards and executive committees.
