Announcing a New Newsletter

This is the first issue of the Ethics in Focus Newsletter.

This newsletter is a companion to the Ethics for the OH&S Professional course. This web-based training course was developed with the following learning objectives:

• Develop an understanding of the various Codes of Ethics that may apply to OH&S practice
• Explore how various commonly-accepted approaches for resolving ethical issues can be applied to OH&S ethical dilemmas
• Practice applying these approaches to OH&S specific case study scenarios

This course specifically focuses on the Code of Ethics established by the American Board of Industrial Hygiene (ABIH) for guiding the practice of Certified Industrial Hygienists. Completing the course will fulfill the ABIH ethics training requirement.

This newsletter will focus on news and views related to OH&S ethical issues. In addition to highlighting ethical issues that are “in the news,” this newsletter will also provide links to various resources that may be helpful to OH&S professionals.
