Conjunctivitis at Work: Hygiene, Shared Equipment and PPE
Infectious conjunctivitis spreads through hands and shared surfaces — which on an industrial site includes shared eye protection and respirators.

The harm that accumulates rather than announces itself.
Industrial hygiene addresses the exposures that damage health over months and years — chemical, physical and biological agents in the working environment.
Overview
Occupational health risk is easy to overlook because its consequences appear slowly. Industrial hygiene deals with the chemical, physical and biological exposures that damage health over months and years rather than in a single incident.
The programme follows a simple discipline: recognise the exposure, evaluate it, then control it, with engineering measures ahead of personal protective equipment. Recurring irritation or discomfort among a workforce is treated as a signal that an exposure needs attention, not just the symptom.
What the programme covers
- Recognition of chemical, physical and biological agents
- Routes of exposure and dose
- Exposure evaluation and workplace monitoring
- The hierarchy of control applied to exposure
- Ventilation, substitution and enclosure
- Personal protective equipment as the last line
Who it is for
Those who assess and control workplace exposures
