What is a Certified Industrial Hygienist?
A Certified Industrial Hygienist (CIH) is a qualified professional specializing in identifying and managing workplace hazards that can impact the health and safety of employees, communities, and the environment. Industrial Hygienists play a vital role in evaluating risks, implementing control measures, and ensuring regulatory compliance. Certified by the American Board of Industrial Hygiene (ABIH), these individuals must undergo specialized training, meet educational requirements, and demonstrate a high level of expertise and competency by passing a comprehensive exam.
