What's Included
This service provides complete monitoring and control strategies for nuisance dust hazards:

Accurate testing of airborne particulates during typical operations.

Clear results compared with OSHA and ACGIH exposure guidelines.

Practical steps such as improved ventilation, dust suppression, and housekeeping practices.

Documentation tailored to your facility’s needs and regulatory requirements.

Guidance to help employees recognize dust risks and follow safe practices.

WHO IS THIS SERVICE FOR
This service is designed for industries where dust is a common byproduct, including manufacturing, woodworking, construction, auto body repair, and distribution centers. If your workplace generates or handles dust that could impact air quality, our monitoring ensures risks are identified and controlled to safeguard health and compliance.

WHY IT MATTERS
Even when not classified as toxic, nuisance dust can cause respiratory irritation, reduce comfort, and lead to long-term health complaints if unmanaged. High levels of dust can also increase cleaning and equipment maintenance costs, or result in citations if exposure exceeds permissible limits. Proactively monitoring and controlling dust helps protect employee health, improve productivity, and keep your facility inspection-ready.

Client Success
Get clear answers about monitoring, risks, and how GMG helps improve workplace air quality.
While not classified as hazardous like silica or lead, nuisance dust can still cause respiratory irritation, eye discomfort, and long-term complaints, and can raise compliance concerns if levels are too high.
Testing should be conducted when dust levels are visible, when new processes are introduced, or when employees report symptoms. Periodic monitoring helps maintain compliance and comfort.
Effective controls include ventilation upgrades, dust suppression systems, improved housekeeping, and employee training.
