Services
Practical Support for Safer Workplaces and Stronger Operations
Team Libertas provides contracted environmental, health, and safety services for organizations that need experienced assistance, additional capacity, or hands-on leadership.
Services range from individual assessments and defined projects to ongoing support as an extension of your team. The emphasis is always on practical solutions – completing the work, helping put improvements into practice, and leaving your organization better equipped to move forward.
Services are led by Peter Hatfield, a Certified Safety Professional (CSP), Certified Industrial Hygienist (CIH), and Certified Hazardous Materials Manager (CHMM).
Ongoing Contracted EHS Support
Not every organization needs another full-time position, but many need more EHS support than their existing team can consistently provide.
Team Libertas can serve as an experienced extension of your organization, providing ongoing on-site or remote support tailored to your operations, workforce, and compliance responsibilities.
Support may include:
- Fractional or contracted EHS leadership
- Ongoing on-site and remote assistance
- Temporary coverage during vacancies or organizational transitions
- Management of safety, health, and environmental responsibilities
- EHS program development and implementation
- Compliance calendars, recordkeeping, and documentation
- Assistance with special projects or periods of increased workload
- Coaching and technical support for managers, supervisors, and EHS personnel
The scope and schedule can be structured around the level of support your organization actually needs.
Compliance Audits and Workplace Assessments
A useful assessment should do more than identify problems. It should help establish priorities and provide a practical path toward improvement.
Services may include:
- Workplace safety and health audits
- Regulatory compliance assessments
- General workplace hazard assessments
- Job hazard analyses and task-specific evaluations
- Written-program and documentation reviews
- OSHA (federal or state) compliance readiness
- Corrective-action planning, tracking, and follow-up
- Evaluation of existing EHS systems and practices
Assessments can address an entire operation, a particular facility or department, or a specific area of concern.
Industrial Hygiene Services
Industrial hygiene services help organizations recognize, evaluate, and control workplace exposures that may affect employee health.
Services may include:
- Workplace exposure assessments
- Air contaminant sampling
- Noise monitoring and exposure evaluation
- Respiratory hazard assessments
- Ventilation and exposure-control evaluations
- Chemical and physical hazard assessments
- Sampling-strategy development
- Interpretation of laboratory and monitoring results
- Practical recommendations for engineering controls, work practices, and personal protective equipment
Industrial hygiene services are performed under the direction of a Certified Industrial Hygienist.
Training and Written Programs
Training and written programs should reflect the work employees actually perform. Team Libertas develops practical, understandable materials that help organizations meet compliance obligations and reinforce safe work practices.
Services may include:
- On-site employee and supervisor training
- Customized training courses and materials
- Written safety and health programs
- Health and Safety Manuals

Incident Investigation and Regulatory Support
When an incident or regulatory inspection occurs, organizations need a clear understanding of what happened, what must be addressed, and what should happen next.
Services may include:
- Incident and near-miss investigations
- Interviews, evidence review, and causal analysis
- Root-cause and contributing-factor evaluation
- Corrective-action development and follow-up
- OSHA (federal or state) inspection support
- Assistance responding to citations and information requests
- Preparation for regulatory meetings
- Support improving systems following an incident
- Serious-injury and high-potential-incident review
The objective is not simply to complete an investigation, but to identify meaningful improvements that reduce the likelihood of recurrence.
Environmental and Hazardous Materials Support
Team Libertas also assists organizations with environmental responsibilities and the safe management of hazardous materials.
Services may include:
- Environmental compliance assessments
- Hazardous-waste and dangerous-waste compliance
- Waste-management procedures and documentation
- Hazardous-material inventories and program support
- Spill prevention and emergency-planning assistance
- Environmental reporting and recordkeeping
- Chemical-management practices
- Regulatory research and compliance assistance
- Environmental permitting support
Services can address a specific compliance question or become part of a broader, ongoing EHS engagement.
Management and Organizational Support
Strong operations depend on more than regulatory compliance. Clear responsibilities, effective management practices, and well-designed processes all influence safety, performance, and the employee experience.
Services may include:
- Management practices and organizational structure
- Leadership and supervisor support
- Operational processes and accountability
- Workforce and employee relations
- Workplace investigations
- Job descriptions and role clarity
- Policy and procedure development
- Organizational transitions
- Special projects requiring experienced, impartial support
These services may be provided independently or incorporated into a broader contracted-services arrangement.
Flexible Ways to Work Together
Services can be structured to fit the nature and duration of the work:
- Ongoing contracted or fractional support
- Defined projects with specific deliverables
- Periodic or scheduled assistance
- Temporary coverage during vacancies or transitions
- Individual audits, assessments, training sessions, or investigations
- On-call technical and management support
Team Libertas primarily serves Southwest Washington and the Portland metropolitan area, with on-site services available throughout Washington and Oregon. Remote services are available nationwide.

Why "Team Libertas"?
“Team” reflects how meaningful work gets done - by good people who are organized, supported, and led well. From our team to your team, the focus is on helping people be their best and do their best work, together.
“Libertas” is Latin for liberty, or freedom. Our liberty is endowed by our Creator, and it is not something meant to sit in passive words - it is something to be lived out with strength and courage.
The name “Team Libertas” also reflects a deeper truth - that true freedom is found in Jesus Christ. That foundation shapes how we approach our work, how we treat people, and the standard we hold ourselves to.
“Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.” (2 Cor 3:17)
“If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.” (John 8:36)
