We study flavour sensitive observables in hadronic Higgs decays up to next-to-leading-order in QCD. In a first step we look at an infrared safe definition of jet flavour. The two algorithms that will accomplish this and that will be discussed in this talk are the flavour dressing and flavour kT algorithm. Having an infrared flavour safe algorithm, we apply it to flavour-sensitive observables. The main observables of interest are the energy of the (sub-)leading flavoured jet and the angle between the leading bb pair as well as its invariant mass. It will be shown: The distributions look quite different in the two categories and thus they can be used as a discriminator. Furthermore, we also discuss that the flavour dressing algorithm is better suited to make theoretical predictions, which can be used to compare to experiments.
