Welcome to the Second Edition of The Filter for 2026.
This edition celebrates another exciting period for the AIOH and the occupational hygiene profession. Inside, you'll find a special tribute to Dr Barry Chesson, recognising his outstanding contribution to the AIOH and the profession over many decades, and the legacy he leaves for future generations of occupational hygienists.
We also take a look back at AIOH26, capturing some of the highlights from another successful conference, including technical sessions, networking opportunities, award presentations and the many moments that brought our members together from across Australia and beyond.
We're also pleased to feature the AIOH Leadership Academy, showcasing the next generation of leaders and the continued investment in developing the future of our profession.
As always, The Filter reflects the strength of our membership through the willingness of members to share their knowledge, experiences and achievements. Thank you to everyone who has contributed to this edition and continues to support the publication.
If you have an article, research, project, or story you would like to share in a future edition, we would love to hear from you. Please contact MarComms@aioh.org.au.
