The AIOH is proud to uphold a strong reputation built on professionalism, scientific integrity, and ethical practice. To protect the credibility of the Institute and ensure consistent representation across all channels, we have established clear standards for the use of the AIOH name, brand, and logo.

As a member-based organisation, all AIOH members are expected to align with these values and represent their association with the Institute appropriately.

Please note:

• The AIOH logo must not be used on company websites, promotional materials, or any external communications without prior written consent from the AIOH Council.

• Members must not imply endorsement or affiliation beyond individual membership without approval.

• Misuse of the AIOH brand may be subject to review under the AIOH Code of Ethics.

For full details on appropriate usage, permissions, and guidelines, please refer to the official policy located in the MYAIOH directory or see Quick Reference: here

The RESP-FIT program is a nationally recognised initiative committed to ensuring the competency of respirator fit-testers and the quality of fit-testing services across Australia. The RESP-FIT logo represents credibility, trust, and adherence to high professional standards.

To maintain the integrity of the program and protect its reputation, strict guidelines apply to the use of the RESP-FIT name, logo, and branding.

Key points for all accredited individuals and organisations:

• The RESP-FIT logo must only be used with express written permission from the RESP-FIT Board.

• Logo use is permitted only by currently accredited fit-testers and for specific approved uses, such as fit-testing reports or personal credentials.

• Use of the RESP-FIT logo on company websites, marketing materials or promotional content is not permitted without written approval.

• Misrepresentation or unauthorised use of the logo may lead to removal from the program or further action.
