About

Most of us spend a significant amount of time indoors, yet the quality of the air we breathe is often overlooked until productivity dips or health issues arise. Poor indoor air quality (IAQ) has a direct impact on the health and performance of every employee, regardless of your industry.

To help you navigate these requirements, we are hosting this webinar with Brian McHugh Senior Inspector, Occupational Health Division within Health and Safety Authority. Brian has twenty-two years’ experience as an inspector with the HSA across multiple sectors including Manufacturing, Construction, Agriculture and Market Surveillance.

 

This webinar will address the Essentials of IAQ including:

  • An introduction to the HSA Code of Practice for Indoor Air Quality and relevant legislation.
  • Health effects associated with poor indoor air quality,
  • Utilising the COP to assist employers to ensure healthy air in their workplaces by managing ventilation, pollutants, and environmental comfort.
  • Conducting a Risk Assessment: A systematic approach to identifying hazards and implementing control measures tailored to your workplace complexity.
  • Inspection finding and statistics obtained from the HSA’s work in this area.

 

Dr. Michael Gillen, Senior OSH Membership Services Executive from Ibec, will lead the discussion by posing questions and helping to create an engaging dialogue throughout the session. Participants can submit questions in advance, which will be addressed during the live event.
