Details:
As a Certified Industrial Hygienist (CIH), Mr. Lieberman is able to anticipate, recognize, evaluate, and design prevention and control measures for contaminants and stressors which may cause sickness, impaired health and well-being, or significant discomfort.
His decades of experience in the field offer EH&S, Facilities and Design teams reliable and expert support – a “Guardian Angel” – to help ensure the right choices are made the 1st time.
What We Do
Save time and money from frustrating mistakes that can be avoided with the intuitive expertise of a CIH on the team. For example, EIS can provide:
- overall consulting on IH for large-scale projects
- coaching to onsite staff regarding IH decisions
- review and confirm technical IH calculations and decisions
- Coach and consult on IH concerns
- Proactive, not reactive, IH advise (although we're skilled at the more complicated and costly reactive IH issues as well)
- Facility assessment or audit, with the ability to look at multiple regulatory compliance issues (e.g. EPA,OSHA, IBC/IFC, DOT, Best Practices, and more).
