Occupational Health and Saftey

What is Occupational Health?

Occupational health is concerned with promoting and maintaining the highest level of physical, mental, and social well-being of workers in all occupations.

The occupational health and safety (OHS) is a term that has been used for many years to describe the work-related health and safety. OHS is the set of policies, processes, and practices that are designed to protect workers from occupational hazards.

Key Information:

  • The type of occupational health service an employer provides depends on the risk profile of the workplace, specific legal requirements, and available resources.
  • An occupational health service includes the services of physicians, nurses, technicians, and hygienists, as well as specialists in specific areas, such as audiometrists.
  • Typical services provided by the occupational health include pre-employment screening, health surveillance, return-to-work rehabilitation programmes, sick leave management, counselling, risk assessment (general and personal), health education and promotion campaigns, treatment services, and administration of first aid and immunisation programmes.
  • There are minimum standards for the qualification and registration of occupational health physicians and nurses, as well as specialists such as audiometricians.
  • General health assessment evaluates a person’s fitness to perform general or specific job-related tasks.
  • Health surveillance involves monitoring a person’s health to ensure that he or she is fit for a job that exposes him or her to a specific type of health hazard and to track his or her health over time while working with that hazard.
  • Following health surveillance, health records must be maintained. These records contain personal information about the individual and his or her work, and may include a physician’s conclusions after a test or evaluation. These records generally must be kept for as long as the worker in question is under health surveillance; national regulations may specify a specific period
  • Occupational health services often collect data on illness and absenteeism to develop occupational health strategies and goals.
