This position requires flexibility to work standard day shifts and provide coverage for evening and night shifts as operational needs dictate. Major Responsibilities Exposure monitoring & sampling: Plan and perform routine and task‑based monitoring for airborne contaminants (e.g., solvents, silica, metals), noise (dosimetry and surveys), heat stress, and other IH stressors. Set up, calibrate, and operate pumps and direct‑reading instruments; maintain sampling records and chain of custody. Data interpretation & monitoring: Download, validate, and trend results; compare to occupational exposure limits; draft clear summaries and recommendations that enable field supervisors to act. Respiratory & hearing conservation support: Assist with respirator program activities (e.g., fit testing, cartridge selection guidance) and hearing conservation (e.g., dosimetry, field coaching on controls and PPE). Provide basic toolbox training under direction of the Sr. Industrial Hygienist/ESH Manager. Risk‑based work planning: Participate in pre‑task planning, JHAs, and FLHAs to ensure IH hazards/aspects are recognized and controls are captured before work begins; confirm barriers remain effective during execution. Instrument care & quality assurance: Maintain IH equipment inventory; perform routine maintenance, bump checks, calibrations, and VOC verification in accordance with procedures; coordinate vendor service as needed. Field engagement & coaching: Partner with Construction and CSU teams in the field to reinforce controls (ventilation, isolation, housekeeping, PPE), clarify sampling plans, and support safe, compliant execution. Compliance & continuous improvement. Support audits, corrective actions, and lessons learned; help update procedures, sampling plans, and dashboards to reduce risk and improve program effectiveness. Education And Experience Requirements Requires a Bachelor’s degree (or international equivalent) related to industrial hygiene and 5‑8 years of relevant experience or 9‑12 years of relevant work experience.

Data literacy: Ability to download, QA/QC, analyze, and visualize monitoring data; competence with Excel and IH databases or logs; clear technical writing for summaries and recommendations. Program support: Basic understanding of respiratory protection and hearing conservation elements under professional oversight. Risk‑based planning: Familiarity with JHA/FLHA processes and field hazard recognition; ability to translate findings into practical controls and verify barrier effectiveness. Field readiness: Comfortable working in industrial construction environments (outdoors, heights, confined spaces, weather exposure); able to lift/carry equipment and traverse active work areas. Must be willing and able to work evening and night shifts. Communication & teamwork: Strong interpersonal skills for field engagement and coaching; coordinate with ESH, Construction, CSU, and subcontractors.
