IIW History 1990-2015

also was the work of Boekholt in galvanising interest in occupational health throughout the shipyards in Europe and the USA. Boekholt died in February 2010 leaving a legacy of working towards better health outcomes for shipyard welders that had consumed him for many years, work that will be continued well into the future by others of similar intent.
