INDUSTRIAL HYGIENE

Evaluating, controlling, and confirming protection from workplace hazards to protect the health and safety of workers and the community

FACILEX® INDUSTRIAL HYGIENE targets the requirements for Similar Exposure Group (SEG) Sampling and Analysis.

By characterizing exposures across groups of workers with similar tasks and environments, SEG sampling provides a structured method of uncovering “hidden” occupational hazards that may not be visible in a typical Process Hazard Analysis (PHA). The resulting exposure data complements traditional PSM elements by providing quantifiable evidence of chemical, physical, or biological risks.

This AI-POWERED PSM™ solution can be optionally integrated with an artificial intelligence assistant.

Robust SEG sampling and diligent recordkeeping embody the CCPS principle of using data-driven knowledge management to prevent harm

FACILEX® Industrial Hygiene offers organizations the tools necessary to act as a bridge between personal health protection and Process Safety Management (PSM).

Industrial Hygiene SEG sampling is a critical but often underutilized component of Process Safety Management (PSM) that monitors the daily exposures to hazardous substances faced by workers. SEG sampling is a best practice that enhances PHAs, validates controls, supports MOC decisions, and strengthens continuous improvement. By integrating exposure monitoring with OSHA and CCPS frameworks, organizations can elevate PSM programs beyond compliance and demonstrate leadership in worker protection.

Similar Exposure Groups (SEGs) cluster workers with comparable potential exposure profiles. By sampling and analyzing these groups, organizations gain:

  • Validated controls – Confidence that ventilation, enclosure, and procedural safeguards work as intended.
  • Better-informed MOC decisions – Ensuring process or equipment modifications do not create new exposure risks.
  • Evidence-based hazard analysis – Data that strengthens PHAs and risk assessments.
  • Health-focused investigations – A reliable exposure baseline for incident reviews and lessons learned.
  • Employee trust and engagement – Demonstrating leadership’s commitment to both acute and chronic risk protection.
