Improving Health & Wellbeing

It’s part of our purpose. Our purpose is to ‘Improve Health and Wellbeing in the Workplace”. Businesses have a duty under current legislation to ensure, as far as is reasonably practicable, that their staff and other stakeholders are not exposed to any health and safety risks that may arise from what they do

By utilizing a combination of science, technology, and innovation to collect data and samples in order to assess HVAC systems, the moisture of materials, possible water ingress sources and surface and airborne mould ecology via analysis in accredited laboratories. This is conducted on the initial investigation and again following remediation to ensure all mould contamination has been adequately treated and removed.

The outcome is identifying and possibly reducing the long-term damage from mould and moisture issues and/or offering recommendations in order to remediate buildings and homes. Also verifying that they are remediated to a safe standard. This ultimately allows people to be in a safe workplace and return to a healthy home.

Some frequently encountered issues we have helped our clients identify and resolve within workplaces and homes are:

  • Flood events
  • Storm damage events
  • Burst water pipes and leaks
  • Condensation and humidity issues
  • Mould affected building materials
  • Mould affected contents
  • Surface and airborne mould ecology

How We Work

Protecting Health and Safety Through Occupational Hygiene Management

We use science and technology to assess workplace environments, measuring exposure to dusts, fumes, noise, and other hazards, with samples analysed in accredited labs. This ensures risks are identified and controls are properly applied to protect staff. From chemical handling to ventilation checks and indoor air quality, our work reduces risks and supports healthier, safer workplaces.
