Networking with Saiosh at OSH Expo 2014

The South African Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (Saiosh) was established by a group of enthusiastic South African occupational health and safety (OHS) professionals on February 11, 2010 – the historic day when South Africa celebrated the 20th anniversary of the release of ex State President, Nelson Mandela, from prison.

Saiosh was one of the exhibitors at OSH Expo Africa 2014. It also co-hosted the Health and Safety Conference that ran alongside the expo, which was attended by more than 150 delegates.

Saiosh is the leading source of information and networking opportunities within the OHS profession, with members from a wide range of industries and corporations from the private and public sector. It is a non-profit organisation that represents individuals and organisations committed to the enhancement of the OHS discipline.

Saiosh is the choice of those OHS professionals and practitioners in southern Africa, who are dedicated to the advancement of the OHS profession through research, promotion, education, upliftment, training, guidance and strong relationships with other OHS stakeholders.

Saiosh is also the registration authority for the Institution of Occupational Safety and Health South Africa (IOSH SA), which is recognised by the South African Qualifications Authority (SAQA) as a professional body to register OHS professionals in South Africa.

It offers four different levels of professional registration: Associate (AIOSHSA), Technical (TechIOSHSA), Graduate (GradIOSHSA) and Chartered (CMIOSHSA).
