Emergency eyewash and showers should be visible, quickly accessible and deliver tepid drenching or flushing fluid. The initial 10-15 seconds after exposure to a hazardous element are crucial. PHASE Associates performs inspections of emergency eyewash and shower devices that follow the ANSI/ISEA Z351.8 standard.

Ergonomics in the Workplace
Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are injuries and disorders that affect the human musculoskeletal system (i.e., neck and back pain, osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis). Researchers from the National Reference Center for Rare Autoimmune Diseases at University Hospitals of Strasbourg found that the number of years of productive life lost due to disability for people with MSDs increased from 77.4 million to 103.8 million, five years later. Ranking MSDs No. 2 in shortening people's working years. To decrease the risk of MSDs to employees, PHASE Associates conducts ergonomic evaluation and assessments. The evaluation and assessments will pinpoint hazardous ergonomic work practices or conditions at your work site and develop practical solutions, and create simple and cost-effective recommendations.

Occupational Exposure Banding (OEB)
Occupational exposure banding, also known as hazard banding or health hazard banding, is a systematic procedure that uses qualitative and quantitative risk information to identify potential exposure ranges or categories. The NIOSH occupational exposure banding process helps to establish exposure control limits and ranges for new or existing chemicals that lack formal occupational exposure limits (OELs). PHASE Associates is experienced in occupational exposure banding, having completed surveys for several clients.
