An environmental health officer needs to have attention for even the slightest detail. After all, they have to inspect buildings and food to ensure its’ quality and effects on people’s health. Every complaint from customers about food hygiene needs to be taken into consideration. Part of the job is also to investigate accidents in workplaces to ensure health and safety. This is why it’s crucial to have an eye for detail to do your job properly.
As a professional in the health industry, you’ll be asked to give educational talks and advise community groups about safety and precaution. With your skills in environmental health plus your knack in communication, you’ll be able to deliver an impactful and influential talk on the field you’re specialised in.

Are you one of those that make sure to wash your hands before you dig in to your crispy fried chicken? Or wash your legs the first thing after you come home? If you answered ‘yes’, then you’re born for this because what you do every day will reflect on how well you do your job. An environmental health officer needs to be very particular about daily practices that will lead to the safety and wellbeing of the community.
