Our Environmental Health & Safety Expertise:

  • Accurate Risk Identification

    We determine whether potential health and safety risks actually require remediation before unnecessary work begins. Through methodical site inspections, targeted testing, and laboratory analysis, we identify the presence and extent of hazardous materials, document specific contamination related to losses, and provide clear assessment reports that guide decision-making.

    During building modification or reconstruction, insurance professionals often assume regulatory responsibilities as "owners" or "constructors." Our team ensures all necessary hazardous material assessments are properly completed, protecting you from potential liability and regulatory penalties. It's important to note that even recently constructed buildings may contain materials requiring special handling under current regulations.

  • Effective Remediation Planning

    When hazardous conditions are confirmed, we develop precise remediation plans based on scientific assessment of contamination levels and associated risks. Our structured approach ensures cost-effective solutions that address actual threats while maintaining safety standards.

  • Comprehensive Project Oversight

    Remediation projects, particularly in older structures, require expert management. Our specialists provide end-to-end project guidance - from contract administration and vendor selection to on-site inspections and continuous air quality monitoring during and after remediation work. This thorough approach ensures all safety protocols are followed and remediation goals are achieved.

  • Specialized Training

    Keeping current with evolving regulations is essential for hazardous materials management. We offer focused educational programs covering occupational health requirements, industry standards, and proper handling procedures for various contaminants. Our training courses include practical guidance on asbestos management, hazardous materials handling, and respiratory protection.

  • Hazardous Materials Expertise

    Our team has extensive experience identifying and managing diverse hazardous substances including chlorofluorocarbons, radioactive materials, PCBs, mercury, silica, mold, and ozone-depleting substances. We ensure these materials are properly assessed and handled throughout the remediation process.

  • Designated Substances Management

    Beyond common hazardous materials, we specialize in handling government-designated substances that pose significant health risks, including asbestos, benzene, lead, and isocyanates. Our thorough understanding of these materials ensures proper handling procedures and regulatory compliance.

Industry Applications

We provide environmental health and safety services across diverse settings - from institutional and commercial buildings to industrial facilities and residential properties. Our expertise helps maintain safe environments, ensure regulatory compliance, and protect all stakeholders from potential liabilities throughout the remediation process.
