About us
Welcome to the IOSH Chiltern Branch, a dedicated community committed to creating a safe and healthy world of work. Our mission is to drive excellence in the occupational safety and health (OSH) profession, while ensuring the well-being of individuals and promoting social sustainability.
With a focus on IOSH charitable objects, we actively promote systematic and organised methods of improving OSH, advocating for their application in workplaces.
Our branch serves as a hub for information exchange and collaboration. We connect professionals from diverse backgrounds, fostering a supportive environment for the sharing of insights, experiences, and innovative ideas. Through these connections, we contribute to the continuous improvement of OSH standards, both locally and globally.
Maintaining and improving professional standards is at the core of our mission. As the IOSH Chiltern Branch, we adhere to world-class standards for OSH practitioners. We offer events and webinars that empower our members to develop their skills and expertise continually. By upholding these high standards, we ensure that our members are recognised and trusted for their ability to create safe and healthy workplaces.
As the IOSH Chiltern Branch, our strategic objectives align with the IOSH vision for the future. We aim to be a leading authority in OSH, maximising our influence and impact. Through our efforts, we drive action from those who can influence global OSH standards, inspiring positive change and promoting excellence in the field.
We also champion the role of OSH in social sustainability. By emphasising the well-being of workers and advocating for the integration of OSH principles, we contribute to the success of businesses and the betterment of society as a whole.
Through our diverse network and continuous professional development opportunities, we connect professionals, enabling them to develop and thrive in their OSH careers. By fostering collaboration and creating a culture of ongoing learning, we contribute to the growth of the OSH community and advance the profession collectively.
