Conduct personal, area, task-based, and direct-reading monitoring using approved methods and calibrated equipment.
Monitor potential exposures to airborne contaminants, respirable crystalline silica, asbestos, lead, metals, welding fumes, particulates, nuisance dust, volatile organic compounds, solvents, coatings, adhesives, chemicals, noise, vibration, heat and cold stress, illumination, biological agents, and ergonomic stressors.

Communicate approved monitoring findings and protective requirements to workers, supervisors, project management, occupational medicine, and site industrial-hygiene personnel.
Recommend and help validate controls using the hierarchy of controls, emphasizing elimination, substitution, isolation, containment, engineering controls, local exhaust ventilation, and improved work practices before reliance on PPE.
Evaluate the implementation and effectiveness of respiratory-protection, ventilation, hearing-conservation, heat-stress, chemical-management, hazardous-material, and ergonomic controls.
