All BOHS Courses

Find the right BOHS course for you

The British Occupational Hygiene Society (BOHS) is a globally recognised body developing qualifications for professionals managing specific health hazards in the workplace. Our BOHS courses cover three of the most significant occupational hygiene risks: COSHH risk assessment for hazardous substances (P304), the management and safe removal of asbestos in buildings (P405), and the control of Legionella bacteria in hot and cold water systems (P901). Each is a technical, specialist qualification developed by occupational hygiene experts and recognised internationally.

Why is BOHS training so important?

BOHS training is essential for professionals aiming to:

  • Minimise Risk: Identify hazardous substances, asbestos, or Legionella bacteria before they cause harm, and apply the right controls.
  • Ensure Compliance: Meet legal responsibilities under COSHH Regulations 2002, the Health and Safety at Work Act, and HSE guidance such as L8 and HSG274.
  • Improve Culture: Build genuine technical competence in your team, not just awareness — supporting safer buildings and workplaces.

BOHS qualifications are highly valued by employers as they reflect a rigorous, internationally recognised standard of technical competence in occupational hygiene.

Who should enrol on a BOHS course?

Our BOHS courses are perfect for:

  • Occupational hygienists and health and safety practitioners
  • Building and facilities managers
  • Construction or demolition supervisors and asbestos removal specialists
  • Water system technicians, operatives, and maintenance staff
  • Managers and duty holders responsible for hazardous substances, asbestos, or water systems under COSHH
