This week we welcome Chris Laszcz-Davis - OHTA, Chelsea Earhart – BGC, Larry Sloan – AIHA and Dr. Albert Tien -WHWB-US to talk about global worker health and the new Global Pathway for CIH Accreditation.
This week we focus on organizations involved in global worker safety and their new collaboration for educating and mentoring global EH&S professionals. We discuss how someone with no specific education, such as a degree in engineering, can become a CIH through the program. It starts with the training from OHTA; work experience with WHWB-US in places that are in need of help with health and safety; proceeds to membership in AIHA, along with participation in committees, etc.; and concludes with an application and a test to obtain a CIH accreditation.
