To get started as a member register as a WHWB-US member. A $40 annual dues is recommended.

2) Share expertise

Contributing as a member is as easy as showing up. Whether you are a scientist, academic, in business or all of the above, your expertise and insight is welcome.

Members collaborate with one another to organize events, create and fund projects, and kickstart new student chapters across the country. Students often reach out to members for help thinking through ideas and implementation.

Did you know? Experienced undergraduate and graduate students can also be involved in projects and participate in meetings.

3) Propose or Sponsor a project

Consider proposing a project if you are aware of an occupational health problem where we may be able to help. Anyone can propose a project to the Board of Directors, but all projects must be sponsored by a current member.

Sponsors guide proposed projects on how to best approach the problem, analyze the situation and implement solutions.

Did you know? Members colaberate with the board at WHWB-US to support other members in the organization, explore best practices on sponsoring a project and ways to get involved.
