Emergency & Regulatory Response 

Hygieneering is available 24/7 to assist with your environmental, health or safety emergency.  Our 24-hour emergency hotline is 844-ERIC-USA (844-374-2872).

Emergency & Regulatory Response

When critical incidents occur, organizations need more than cleanup, they need experienced Environmental, Health & Safety leadership, regulatory strategy, and defensible technical oversight.

Hygieneering provides 24/7 emergency EHS consulting support for chemical releases, fires, floods, serious injuries, regulatory inspections, and other high-risk events.

Our team of Certified Industrial Hygienists (CIH), Certified Safety Professionals (CSP), Certified Hazardous Materials Managers (CHMM), and senior environmental professionals mobilizes rapidly to assess risk, support Incident Command, interface with regulatory agencies, and guide organizations safely through complex situations.

We do not perform physical remediation.

We DO provide independent technical assessment, regulatory guidance, documentation, and oversight to protect your people, operations, and compliance position.
