We have a passion for problem solving. It’s what drives us, after all — using our love of design to create solutions that help real people solve real problems. And now, we’d like to introduce you to our latest solution to one of the many challenges faced by fire service personnel:

(Drum roll, please.)

Exposure Journal!

We developed Exposure Journal specifically so that all firefighters can track their carcinogen-related exposures over the course of their careers.

Before you ask, yeah, we know that there are other carcinogen exposure trackers out there. But we partnered with the Oregon Safety and Health Section to make sure that Exposure Journal would be easy, accessible, secure, and free.

That’s right, we said free.

Thanks in large part to the contribution, support, and vision of the Oregon Safety and Health Section, Exposure Journal is free to all fire service personnel, whether career or volunteer, for the next three years. You can even sign up for a department membership (also free for three years) and take advantage of the data as it rolls in over the course of our expansion.

With Exposure Journal, one click is all it takes to create an entry, so you can forget about filling out page after page of questions following an exposure. Access your exposures anywhere, anytime, from any device — we designed Exposure Journal to go where you do, so your information is always at your fingertips. And perhaps most importantly, your entries are completely secure, so you can rest assured that the only person who sees what you’ve catalogued is you.

We know there are other trackers out there, but there’s only one Exposure Journal, and we’re determined to help you and other firefighters live easier, healthier lives — one entry at a time.
