Service Introductions

Chemical Risk Assessments

The wide use of chemicals in many settings such as manufacturing, facilities management, and

construction poses environmental health and safety challenges requiring special expertise. Several

OSHA, EPA, and DOT regulations require the evaluation of risks associated with chemicals and

specify controls during use, storage, and transportation. It is challenging for companies to fulfill

their obligation to communicate hazards to employees, customers, and the community because the

knowledge of health effects associated with chemical exposures is continuously evolving.

Health and Safety Auditing

A key element of a successful health and safety program, one that reduces accidents, improves

productivity, and saves money, is the practice of regularly auditing program elements, including

facilities, employee training, and program organization. Colden Certified Safety Professionals have

assisted hundreds of clients with their program evaluation needs in industrial, non-industrial, and

institutional settings.

Training

Safety training is an essential regulatory and ethical part of an overall health and safety compliance

program. Colden Certified Safety Training Specialists (NASP-CSTS) create best-in-practice standard

training programs, as well as customized site specific programs. We identify current needs and

create a training program using state-of-the-art training media and interactive programs to suit your

individual needs.

Service Introductions

Occupational Health and Safety Management Systems

An occupational health and safety management system (OHSMS) facilitates organizational effectiveness to foster health and safety improvements. Applying an approach introduced by quality control pioneer Dr. W. Edwards Deming, our OHSMSs employ the Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) model to improve corporate health and safety outcomes. Colden’s tailored OHSMS yields improvements in corporate communication, morale, quality, and injury and illness rates. Asbestos and Lead Management Colden Corporation provides expert asbestos management services for maintaining asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) in-place, or facilitating renovation projects involving potential disturbance of ACMs. Colden provides lead-based paint (LBP) management services that parallel our expert asbestos management services. Indoor Environment Quality The indoor environment in any building is the result of the interaction between the site, climate, building systems, construction techniques, contaminant sources, and building occupants. Management of indoor environmental quality and a healthy indoor environment contribute to the health, productivity, comfort, and sense of health and well-being of employees and building occupants.
