Joint Industrial Hygiene Ethics Education Committee (JIHEEC)

Mission

The committee is an educational resource to the industrial hygiene profession whose mission is to promote an awareness and understanding of the enforceable code of ethics published by the ABIH as well as the ACGIH, AIH and AIHA’s member ethical principles. It includes representatives from AIHA, ABIH and ACGIH. The committee is not an enforcement group or resolution board however, the group serves the membership by bringing to its attention ethical dilemmas facing the industrial hygienist and can also serve as a sounding board for challenges facing the professional.
