The British Occupational Hygiene Society (BOHS) is publishing a new brochure targeted at all occupational health and safety professionals.

The British Occupational Hygiene Society (BOHS) is publishing a new brochure targeted at all occupational health and safety professionals.

Its aim is to explain how occupational hygiene fits into the wider occupational health arena, clarify widespread misunderstandings about the terminology, and inform about the products and services available from BOHS to members and non-members alike.

Occupational hygiene is not about washing your hands properly at work; it is about anticipating, recognising, evaluating and controlling health hazards arising from work, and occupational hygienists specialise in controlling the risks to health in practical and cost-effective ways.

BOHS is an inclusive, multidisciplinary society which welcomes anyone with an interest in a healthier working environment, from engineers, scientists, nurses, physicians, right through the spectrum to health, safety and environmental advisors.

Much of what it provides is available as a public and professional service to all, regardless of membership.

This includes a wide range of training courses and examinations, access to specialist information, specialists, general occupational health and hygiene information, and a packed programme of meetings, seminars and conferences throughout the UK.

The new brochure, which is free, gives full details on these and other products and services.

It can be downloaded from the website or requested by telephone.
