Frequently Asked Questions

Q:  What is the JOEH? How is it different from the AIHA Journal and Applied Occupational and Environmental Hygiene?

The Journal of Occupational and Environmental Hygiene (JOEH) is a monthly, peer-reviewed journal produced jointly by ACGIH® and the American Industrial Hygiene Association (AIHA). These two associations came together in 2003 and decided to work together to create a stronger journal for the occupational and environmental health and safety profession than either could do alone.

The AIHA Journal was the official journal of AIHA; it ceased publication at the end of 2003. Applied Occupational and Environmental Hygiene was the official journal of ACGIH® and also ceased publication at the end of 2003.

Q:   What kinds of articles are published in the JOEH?

The JOEH is published to enhance the knowledge and practice of occupational and environmental hygiene and safety. The journal provides a written medium for the communication of ideas, methods, processes, and research in the areas of occupational, industrial, and environmental hygiene; exposure assessment; engineering controls; occupational and environmental epidemiology, medicine, and toxicology; ergonomics; and other related disciplines.
