DOHSBase at the 34th NVvA Symposium 2026

DOHSBase is proud to participate as a sponsor at the 34th NVvA Symposium, taking place on April 1-2, 2026 at the Woudschoten Conference Centre in Zeist, the Netherlands.

TrAHnsitie: The Occupational Hygienist as Strategic Partner

This year’s theme — TrAHnsitie — focuses on the role of the occupational hygienist in a rapidly changing world. From the energy transition and digitalization to AI applications in occupational hygiene, the symposium covers the topics that will shape our sector in the years ahead.

Key topics include:

• Occupational UV exposure and skin damage — Prof. Thomas Rustemeyer (Amsterdam UMC)
• Innovative methods for chemical risk assessment — Prof. Mirjam Luijten (RIVM/Leiden University)
• AI in hazardous substance research — Dr. Bernice Scholten (TNO)
• Accelerated silicosis in engineered stone workers — Martie van Tongeren (University of Manchester)
• Parallel sessions on sound measurement, dermal exposure, exposure models, PFAS, and more

Meet DOHSBase

As a sponsor, we will be present at the information market throughout the symposium. Stop by to:

Relevance for DOHSBase Users

Several symposium sessions directly relate to DOHSBase functionality:

Chemical Risk Assessment

Prof. Mirjam Luijten’s plenary on innovative methods for chemical risk assessment connects to the core of what DOHSBase offers. Our Risk Assessment Score (RAS) enables users to compare and prioritize chemical risks based on hazard statements, saturation concentrations, and limit values.

Limit Values and the Hierarchy

The DOHSBase limit value hierarchy is an essential tool for every occupational hygienist. At the symposium, you can discuss with us how the hierarchy works and how to apply it in practice.

AI and Digitalization

With the session on AI in hazardous substance research as one of the plenary lectures, it is clear that digital tools play an increasingly important role in occupational hygiene. DOHSBase Online has been the digital reference for substance information since 1992, and we continue to invest in functionality that meets the needs of the modern occupational hygienist.
