Function
As well as providing services and information to its members, the CIEH also advises government departments on environmental health and is consulted by them on proposed legislation relevant to the work of environmental health professionals. Its mission is to maintain, enhance and promote improvements in public and environmental health.
The CIEH was also involved as a partner in the development of the Occupational Safety & Health Consultants Register (OSHCR), a centrally held register of qualified health and safety professionals working in the United Kingdom & Northern Ireland, with the intent of making it easier and more convenient for businesses and employers to find recognised health and safety consultants.
