Breathe Freely around the world

In 2019, BOHS generously allowed the Australian Institute of Occupational Hygienists (AIOH) to develop the Breathe Freely Australia program to meet Australian industry needs.

In 2020, the New Zealand Occupational Hygiene Society (NZOHS) also adopted the campaign for education and awareness of safe work practices to prevent dust-related occupational lung disease.
