Environmental Health Officers

Environmental Health Officers (EHOs) are professionals responsible for protecting public health by monitoring and managing environmental factors. They inspect facilities such as restaurants, schools, and waste disposal sites to ensure compliance with health and safety regulations. EHOs assess risks related to food safety, pollution, sanitation, and public health hazards. They also investigate complaints, provide education on health practices, and enforce laws to maintain a healthy environment. By addressing these issues, EHOs contribute to the overall well-being of communities and help prevent health problems related to environmental conditions.
