About us


David Bromwich & Associates – Consulting Occupational Hygienists also trades as dbOHS which matches its web address dbohs.com or www.dbohs.com
Though dbOHS could be read as David Bromwich Occupational Health & Safety, the business is more about occupational disease than occupational injury.
dbOHS is registered as a business in Queensland  BN201144647 and Australia ABN 79676149575. dbOHS is also registered for GST

dbOHS carries public liability and professional indemnity insurance, with exclusions for asbestos and ionising radiation.
Though I have published a several  research papers on asbestos, I am more than happy for asbestos specialists to do that work. My insurance company seems happy for dbOHS to do low level radiation surveys.
