Skalsky & Associates mission is to help maintain a healthy work environment. Our professionals evaluate worker exposure to contaminants and pollutants. We examine the work place environment to identify stressors that may threaten the health of workers.
Skalsky & Associates can assist you in regulatory compliance. We can help you identify sources of environmental pollutants and assess health impacts on workers and surrounding populations. Skalsky & Associates can establish and manage medical surveillance programs, develop and conduct health and safety training programs, and evaluate emergency release/accidental spill scenarios. We can develop and implement mitigative measures for contaminated sites and facilities.
Proper planning of procedures and processes can yield substantial benefits in terms of controlling emissions, effluents, and preventing potentially hazardous worker or public exposures. Skalsky & Associates can assist you in developing a strategy to simplify compliance with environmental and occupational regulations.
