Why join? 

Becoming a Fellow demonstrates your seniority in your specific area of Occupational Hygiene and shows a distinct contribution to the advancement of the profession. 

Benefits of Membership 

Being a Specialist Fellow of the Faculty of Occupational Hygiene entitles you to use the post nominals of FFOH (S). This demonstrates you have reached the highest level of FOH membership and is the ultimate recognition of your knowledge, experience in your area of expertise and your contribution to the profession.

All the membership benefits you currently enjoy as a Specialist Member of FOH are retained.

• Must have been at the Member or Specialist Member grade of the Faculty for at least 5 years

Guidance for Fellowship Applicants

Applications are reviewed by the Faculty of Occupational Hygiene Committee and will be considered based on all the information supplied by you and your  referees.

Retired Membership

If you are retired (full time) and an existing Specialist Fellow, you might be eligible for Retired Fellow Grade.
