Real world solutions to SEG management challenges

Tuesday, December 9, 2014 10:00am - 11:00am EST  
Host: AIHA
By: Monica Melkonian, MS, CIH, Consultant, Medgate and Joe Loro, CIH, Senior Sales Executive, Medgate

Properly defined exposure groups allow hygienists to characterize risk and ultimately keep employees out of harm. The challenge, however, is that SEGs need to be defined accurately - not too narrowly or broadly - and in a harmonized fashion across the organization.

During this webinar, Monica Melkonian, CIH, and Joe Loro, CIH, will discuss some of the common challenges clients face, including: collecting critical historical data from disparate systems; dealing with changing processes; incorporating new scientific information regarding an agent or process; and handling mobile and contracted work forces.
Monica and Joe will share their SEG management best practices drawing from experience of implementing industrial hygiene software in many different organizations. Such implementations often serve as a catalyst to help refine and harmonize risk assessment programs, including how exposure groups will be defined and managed.

Attend this webinar and learn:

  • The risks of poorly defined exposure groups
  • How AIHA recommends establishing exposure groups
  • The steps to achieve successful definition and management of SEGs
  • The importance of validating SEGs and establishing a reassessment program
