Occupational Health

Occupational health focuses on the relationship between health and work. For some people a health issue will affect their ability to work or the type of work they can do. In other cases, the work itself may have the potential to affect an individual's health. Occupational health aims to ensure that people can be as effective as possible in their work and that their health is protected.
