Professional Ethics Education

The Academy is the Secretariat of the Joint Industrial Hygiene Ethics Education Committee (JIHEEC), which includes representatives from AIH, AIHA, ABIH, and ACGIH. The Ethics Education 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.

JIHEEC is not an enforcement group or resolution board, but 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. You can learn more about JIHEEC, your professional ethical responsibilities, as well as review ethics educational materials at JIHEEC’s web page.

To learn more about the American Board of Industrial Hygiene’s procedures for investigating ethical complaints or the procedure for submitting an ethical complaint on an ABIH certified industrial hygienist, visit the ABIH website.
