Industrial Hygienist
Description
About You
You have an academic foundation in occupational and public health science or engineering and are launching your career as an industrial hygiene scientist. You are comfortable with the standard methods of industrial hygiene and occupational risk assessment but are eager to explore and apply sophisticated approaches that better represent the relationship between exposure and risk. You are a creative problem solver who seeks innovative approaches to resolving complex matters, such as assessment of emerging contaminants, workplace and consumer product exposure assessment, regulatory occupational toxicology, and toxicity benchmark derivation for chemical agents. You are looking for a place where your ideas are taken seriously. A lifelong learner, you want to keep growing intellectually and professionally. Collaborating with colleagues with diverse expertise is exciting for you, and you are also comfortable working independently. Quality management and integrity are among your strongest principles.
