Industrial hygiene support solutions for COVID-19

Wood is helping businesses and communities navigate the challenge of creating a safe environment for employees and facility occupants.

Helping you navigate the uncertainty

We understand your focus is to balance business continuity while caring for the health and well-being of your stakeholders, your people and your community. That’s why Wood is continuing to provide project support and delivery by creating comprehensive action plans that help keep your employees safe by reducing exposure risk and keeping your essential operations running with minimal interruption.

While it’s difficult to prepare for the unforeseen effects of a pandemic such as coronavirus, our team of industrial hygienists, safety specialists, risk assessors, toxicologists, and other professionals have decades of experience with rapidly evolving situations where safety, infection control, containment, isolation, risk communication and other urgent response activities are required.

With information changing daily – sometimes hourly – our experts are staying on top of the latest guidance from authorities such as the World Health Organization (WHO) and other global and national health advisors. We also recognize that each site is unique, and we prioritize creating tailored plans that work specifically for you and your facility’s needs. With our experience working across the lifecycle of your assets, we’re able to provide these targeted solutions quickly and efficiently.
