The American discipline
Clear rules, measurable controls and documented competence — so every task has a safe way of working and every worker knows it.
American Society for Occupational Safety & Health
Safer work. Stronger standards.
Certified training, professional membership and accredited training centres — built on the best of American and British safety practice.
Who we are
One society. Two traditions. A single standard of care.
ASOSH brings together the compliance discipline that defines American workplace safety and the risk-based thinking at the heart of British practice. The result is training that is rigorous, practical and recognised by employers who take people seriously.
