About the Role
The Industrial Hygiene Engineer will perform routine to moderately complex Industrial Hygiene assignments in support of Brookhaven National Laboratory's Industrial Hygiene Program. This position requires the use of established Industrial Hygiene principles and practices to evaluate workplace exposures, perform field surveys, support PPE and respiratory protection activities, and document hazard assessments. This position will also hold subject matter expert (SME) roles and therefore be the primary contact for laboratory staff related to that role.
Responsibilities
- Assist with and conduct qualitative and quantitative Industrial Hygiene exposure assessments for chemical and physical workplace hazards.
- Perform workplace surveys, field inspections, exposure monitoring, and hazard evaluations in laboratories, shops, experimental facilities, support areas, and other operational environments.
- Assist in preparing technical reports, exposure monitoring summaries, hazard evaluations, and written recommendations for review by senior Industrial Hygiene staff or the Industrial Hygiene Program Supervisor.
- Support Respiratory Protection and PPE program activities, including task-based hazard assessments, respirator selection support, PPE evaluations, fit testing support, documentation, and employee guidance.
- Assist with evaluating workplace controls, including engineering controls, administrative controls, local exhaust ventilation systems, respiratory protection equipment, and personal protective equipment.
- Conduct and assist with ergonomics assessments, including evaluations of workstation setup, task design, material handling, repetitive motion concerns, and related employee exposure concerns.
- Conduct and assist with exhaust ventilation evaluations, including basic airflow measurements, smoke testing, capture observations, visual inspections, and documentation of system performance concerns.
- Collect Industrial Hygiene samples, operate monitoring equipment, document sampling activities, maintain chain-of-custody records, and coordinate sample submission to analytical laboratories.
- Review field measurements, sampling data, and laboratory analytical results to support exposure assessments and hazard evaluations.
- Compare exposure monitoring results to applicable occupational exposure limits, guidance values, and Laboratory requirements under the direction of senior Industrial Hygiene staff.
- Operate, maintain, calibrate, and troubleshoot Industrial Hygiene monitoring and sampling equipment.
- Support chemical activities by assisting with chemical hazard reviews, workplace evaluations, and control recommendations.
- Assist with maintaining Industrial Hygiene records, procedures, equipment inventories, sampling documentation, and program files.
- Collaborate with line organizations, scientists, engineers, technicians, craft workers, safety professionals, and management to support hazard identification and exposure control activities.
- Serve as a technical resource and/or subject matter expert, as assigned and commensurate with experience, in Industrial Hygiene areas potentially including PPE selection and evaluation, respiratory protection, respirator fit testing, ergonomics, exhaust ventilation, occupational noise, chemical exposure monitoring, and related workplace assessment activities.
- Support occupational health activities, Industrial Hygiene-related incident reviews, and emergency response support activities as assigned.
- Maintain working knowledge of applicable OSHA, DOE, ACGIH, and Laboratory occupational health and safety requirements.
Requirements
- Bachelor's degree in Industrial Hygiene, Engineering, Occupational Health, Environmental Health and Safety, Physical Sciences, or a closely related technical discipline.
- Minimum of three (3) years of progressively responsible professional experience in industrial hygiene, occupational health, environmental health and safety, engineering, or a related scientific or technical field.
- Relevant experience must include assessing workplace health hazards, conduct exposure monitoring, or evaluating protective measures and controls, along with analyzing and documenting technical findings.
- Working knowledge of Industrial Hygiene principles, exposure assessment methods, occupational health hazard evaluation, and workplace control strategies.
- Familiarity with applicable occupational health and safety requirements, including OSHA standards, DOE worker protection requirements, and ACGIH guidance.
- Familiarity with one or more Industrial Hygiene subject areas such as respiratory protection, PPE selection and evaluation, ergonomics, exhaust ventilation, chemical exposure assessment, occupational noise, indoor air quality, heat stress, chemical management, or workplace exposure monitoring.
- Ability to work both independently and as part of a multidisciplinary safety and operations team.
- Solid safety-based reasoning skills, attention to detail, and sound professional judgment.
- Ability to manage multiple assignments, establish priorities, coordinate with others, and complete work within established schedules.
- Must possess and maintain a valid driver’s license.
- Professional certification or progress toward certification as a CIH, CSP, ASP, or other relevant occupational health and safety credentials.
- Experience supporting Industrial Hygiene programs in a research, laboratory, accelerator, industrial, manufacturing, construction, and/or DOE environment.
- Familiarity with 10 CFR 851 worker safety and health requirements.
- Experience supporting respiratory protection programs, PPE selection and evaluation, respirator fit testing, ergonomics assessments, local exhaust ventilation evaluations, chemical hazard evaluations, exposure monitoring, or chemical management activities.
- Familiarity with Industrial Hygiene data management systems or safety management software.
- Experience using applications to organize data using software such as excel or sheets etc., and preparing technical documentation, and communicate results.
- Experience using Industrial Hygiene monitoring instrumentation, direct-reading instruments, sampling pumps, noise monitoring equipment, ventilation evaluation tools, and/or fit testing equipment.
- Experience supporting workplace exposure monitoring, field surveys, hazard assessments, or control evaluations.
- Experience collecting, organizing, preparing, reviewing, interpreting, and documenting technical data to support hazard evaluations, exposure assessments, and/or technical recommendations and conclusions.
- Experience communicating technical information to both technical and nontechnical audiences, including explaining technical findings, results, or recommendations in a clear and understandable manner.
