The American Industrial Hygiene Association® is releasing a video for North American Occupational Safety and Health (NAOSH) Week that focuses on the vital work industrial hygiensts do.

NAOSH Week occurs during the first full week of May. This year's theme is “Safety, What Every Business Needs.”

"AIHA’s commitment to protecting worker health is realized through the stewardship of our volunteer groups, and our steadfast members have dedicated over 70 years to industrial hygiene and occupational health and safety," according to a statement issued by the group.

The informative animated video about industrial hygiene that's being made available by AIHA is titled “The Right Thing To Do.”

Through clear language and images understandable to a wide audience, the video explains the role of industrial hygienists in keeping people safe at work. The video is available at youtu.be/0k7GPWBoCa0.

As part of NAOSH Week, Occupational Safety and Health Professional (OSHP) Day will be celebrated on Wednesday, May 9, 2012.
