This year's American Industrial Hygiene Conference & Exposition, scheduled for Orlando, Fla., May 20-25, looks like it will be the last one with the words "industrial hygiene" attached to it. And "American", for that matter. Next year, the conference will go by the name, "Environmental Health & Safety Conference & Exposition."
The name change was approved by the Board of Directors of the American Industrial Hygiene Association last year, but wasn't announced publicly until last month to avoid confusion with this year's meeting.
