Associations Offer Guidance on Going Back to the Office

New guides offer some help

Across a wide range of industries, everyone is asking the same question: How does my organization get back to work safely? New guides from the American Industrial Hygiene Association (AIHA) and the American Institute of Architects (AIA) offer some help.

AIHA’s Back to Work Safely website features eight guides focused on specific environments—including construction, hair and nail salons and general office settings—that provide detailed guidance on how to get back to work. The goal was to provide free industry-specific advice to organizations that can’t afford to hire a specialist but need to reopen safely.

“Many of us work for or advise major industries,” said Hamid Arabzadeh, FAIHA, CSP, CHMM, a certified industrial hygienist and AIHA fellow. “There are businesses that don’t have the size or resources to hire folks like us. Hospitals have the resources for guidance, but small dental clinics have limited resources.”
