Occupational Health Surveillance

Occupational health surveillance is a systematic process of monitoring and assessing workers’ health over time to identify potential work-related health issues early. It involves regular check-ups, health screenings, and data collection to detect signs of illness or injury linked to job exposures. The goal is to prevent serious health problems, ensure safe working conditions, and promote employees’ well-being. By tracking health trends among workers, companies and health authorities can implement targeted interventions, improve safety protocols, and reduce occupational illnesses and accidents.
