Membership fees
We welcome all new members to IOSH as
Affiliate Members at a fee of £135, giving you immediate
access to all the benefits of being an IOSH
member for one year from the date of joining.
If you join online, you'll pay using
our secure online payment facility. If you use a paper application
form (PDF 45 KB), please follow the payment
instructions on the form.
Once you've joined, we'll review your qualifications and
experience against criteria outlined in the Royal Charter
and Byelaws (PDF 76 KB). If you meet the relevant
criteria, we'll recommend you become either a Technician or Graduate Member. All
Technician and Graduate Members must take part in our Continuing Professional Development (CPD) scheme
to maintain their membership status and use their post-nominal
letters.
Renewing your membership
The easiest way to renew your membership is online. If you're
registered with MyIOSH, we'll let you know
when your membership is due for renewal and you'll be able to renew
quickly and securely online. Register your
details on MyIOSH.
You can also renew your membership by post or by calling us.
If your normal currency is not sterling, it's best if you pay
online by credit card. Your renewal fee will automatically be
converted to sterling using the latest currency rates.
If you're paying in sterling, you can also pay the renewal fee
by cheque or postal order (made payable to IOSH).
To pay in Euros or by bank draft,

What can groups offer you?
Groups offer you the chance to:

- contribute to legal consultations that have a direct impact on
your industry

Free branch membership
Every member of IOSH can join the branch of their choice for
free. Some members choose to belong to the branch nearest their
home. Others choose to belong to the branch nearest their work –
it's up to you.
You can visit any branch of IOSH you want to. So, if you're away
on business and there's a branch meeting nearby, you'll be sure of
a warm welcome if you decide to drop in.
