Screening Workers for Occupational Exposure to Respirable Crystalline Silica: Development and Usability of an Electronic Data Capture Tool

Screening Workers for Occupational Exposure to Respirable Crystalline Silica: Development and Usability of an Electronic Data Capture Tool

The initial paper-based questionnaire was developed by a multidisciplinary team, including respiratory physicians, an occupational hygienist, and occupational physicians [16]. Simplicity was prioritized, as many industry workers were born outside Australia and spoke English as an additional language [18]. Up to 6 jobs in the SBI could be recorded in the occupational history.

The EMPOWER Occupational e–Mental Health Intervention Implementation Checklist to Foster e–Mental Health Interventions in the Workplace: Development Study

The EMPOWER Occupational e–Mental Health Intervention Implementation Checklist to Foster e–Mental Health Interventions in the Workplace: Development Study

In this regard, existing evidence on occupational e–mental health (Oe MH) interventions indicates their effectiveness in promoting mental health and alleviating the associated burdens [14-16]. In particular, a meta-analysis by Carolan et al [15] showed that workplace mental health interventions delivered via mobile technologies, computers, or the internet are effective in promoting psychological well-being and reducing anxiety and depression.

Occupational Health Hazards Among Traffic Police in South Asian Countries: Protocol for a Scoping Review

Occupational Health Hazards Among Traffic Police in South Asian Countries: Protocol for a Scoping Review

Traffic police officers are continuously compromising their health for the general public and are more exposed to occupational hazards. Since occupation is a major determinant of health, traffic police personnel face multiple occupational hazards, and it has become a serious public health concern. Thus, duty-bound personnel like traffic police are continuously exposed to occupational health risks and hazards and experience severe related health problems [4].

From the Cochrane Library: Interventions for Preventing Occupational Irritant Hand Dermatitis

From the Cochrane Library: Interventions for Preventing Occupational Irritant Hand Dermatitis

Occupational hand dermatitis, the most common work-related skin disease, is divided into irritant and allergic types [1]. Occupational irritant hand dermatitis (OIHD) is associated with repetitive wet work, contact with detergents and other chemicals, and prolonged glove wearing. OIHD frequently becomes chronic, exerts a major impact on quality of life, and may eventuate in disability or job loss/change. As such, its prevention is paramount.

Supporting Workers to Sit Less and Move More Through the Web-Based BeUpstanding Program: Protocol for a Single-Arm, Repeated Measures Implementation Study

Supporting Workers to Sit Less and Move More Through the Web-Based BeUpstanding Program: Protocol for a Single-Arm, Repeated Measures Implementation Study

For many working adults, the majority of daily sitting time is accrued in the occupational environment [5], with desk workers spending on average 70% to 80% of their working day sitting [6]. Much of this sitting time is accrued in prolonged, unbroken bouts of 30 min or longer [6]: a pattern that potentially places them at increased risk for poor cardiometabolic [7,8] and musculoskeletal [9] health.
