The International Occupational Hygiene Association (IOHA) represents the global community of occupational hygienists. IOHA’s aim is to improve, promote and develop occupational hygiene worldwide through its member associations, and to improve and maintain a safe and healthy working environment for all. The profession of occupational hygiene is crucial in the prevention of occupational diseases and in advancing worker well-being. Through the anticipation, recognition, evaluation and control of workplace hazards, occupational hygiene helps create safer and healthier work environments. This session will provide an overview of IOHA, some of our current partnerships and related work, the urgent need for building capacity in occupational hygiene worldwide such that the local, national and global workforces are served, efforts underway to establish regional occupational hygiene networks, opportunities to support IOHA, and a fun and inspirational Haiku activity to close.
