THE OBJECTIVE OF THE WORKSHOP
SASOHN is committed to the development of
Occupational Health and continued professional
development of Occupational Health Nursing
Practitioners in South Africa.
ICOH has stated that in order to develop
Occupational Health globally, occupational
health practitioners need to address the
basics of their discipline. SASOHN has
embraced this concept and presents
the 4th Academic Workshop in line with
ICOH and SASOHN's professional objectives.
The workshop aims to meet these
objectives through the presentation of
both theoretical and practical knowledge,
by subject experts, that will assist the
practitioner to better manage the health
of vulnerable and neglected workers in
the workplace.
