What is Industrial Hygiene monitoring Singapore?
Industrial Hygiene Monitoring helps you assess your workers’ level of exposure to hazards and how effective your hazard control measures are.You should evaluate the results of workplace monitoring and take the necessary measures to safeguard your workers’ health. You should also inform employees of the results and keep a record.
If your workplace uses or generates toxic substances, you must conduct regular toxic substances monitoring and it must be done by a competent person. The frequency of monitoring is dependent on the level of contaminant compared against the Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL) stated in the WSH (General Provision Regulations) First Schedule.
Ratio (%) of concentration of contaminants compared to PEL | Frequency of monitoring |
< 10% PEL | No monitoring is required. A re-assessment should be carried out if there is any change in the process. |
10% to 50% PEL | At least once a year. |
> 50% to 100% PEL | At least once every 6 months. |
> 100% PEL | At least once every 3 months, until the exposure is reduced to below the PEL by appropriate control measures. |
