Apply now for the Occupational Health Internship Program - Deadline Feb. 15

The Occupational Health Internship Program (OHIP) is a national summer program dedicated to help students learn about the field of occupational safety and health (OSH) from those most at stake: working people. Since 2004, OHIP has played a key role in training, mentoring, and inspiring a new generation of OSH professionals to prevent job injury and disease through partnerships with worker and community based organizations. A project of the Association of Occupational and Environmental Clinics (AOEC), OHIP has training sites across the country including: the San Francisco Bay Area, Los Angeles, Chicago, Boston, DC, and New York City. New sites for 2019 include: Hartford (CT), Cincinnati (OH), Las Vegas, and Paducah (KY) -- other sites may be announced. Our 2018 projects included the examination of San Jose bus operators’ health perspectives on split shifts, the investigation of health and safety hazards in the meatpacking industry in Southern California, a health and safety needs assessment of New York nurses, and the identification of health and safety hazards of Puerto Rican public sector workers post-hurricane Maria.
