Topic outlines include chemistry, biochemistry, physics, toxicology, respiratory diseases, occupational dermatoses, exposure criteria, medical monitoring, heat stress, effects of and protection from noise exposure, noise measurement evaluation and control, respiratory and eye protection, air sampling and analysis, air pollution, environments with limited oxygen, industrial ventilation, ergonomics, health physics, nonionizing radiation, illumination, statistics in industrial hygiene, and occupational safety. The manual is suggested for persons preparing for industrial hygiene certification examinations.
