The Southern African Institute for Occupational Hygiene (SAIOH) is a professional body committed to the prevention and reduction of ill health at work through the dissemination of knowledge and the professional registration of Occupational Hygiene Practitioners.
Occupational Hygienists help to protect the health of people at work. They are trained to recognize hazards to health, they understand how to assess the risks that might arise from these hazards and they know how to control the risks.
