Environmental Health Officer
An Environmental Health Officer (EHO) is a professional responsible for protecting public health by ensuring that environmental factors, such as air and water quality, are safe and healthy. They monitor and regulate various aspects of the environment, including food safety, waste management, and pollution control. EHOs often work for government agencies and collaborate with other professionals to enforce health regulations.
EHOs conduct inspections, investigate complaints, and educate the community about health risks related to the environment. They may also respond to emergencies, such as outbreaks of disease or environmental hazards, to safeguard public health and promote a cleaner, safer environment for everyone.
