Abstract:
Abstract Background While occupational physical hazards are related to physical decline in older adulthood, less is known about cognitive outcomes. We hypothesize that greater life course occupational physical hazards would be associated with higher mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and dementia risk. Methods Data were from the Trøndelag Health Study, a population-based study of one Norwegian county beginning in 1984, with follow-up every decade. In 2017-2019 participants age ≥ 70 had cognitive assessments, used to diagnose MCI or dementia. Occupations from age 30-65 were from decennial censuses

Abstract:
Background: An occupational hazard is a hazard experienced in the workplace. This includes many types of hazards like chemical hazards, biological hazards, psychosocial hazards and physical hazards. Occupational ocular trauma holds significant proportion of visual morbidity worldwide. This can be prevented with the use of proper protective eyewear and strict compliance. This survey was conducted to study occupational related ocular hazard in our tertiary health care system hospital having patients involved in various occupations.Methods: A total of 90 occupational ocular injuries were recorded

Abstract:
Occupation is a labour routinely engaged in by individuals, often as a result of training, and for the purpose of making or earning a living. A hazard is something that could cause harm. The aim of this study was to study the association between risk factors and occupational hazards. A well-structured questionnaire was used for the collection of details from the respondents about their socio-demographic data, risk assessment data and hazard occurrence. The risk assessment data (risk factors) studied include: PPE provision, PPE usage, working at multiple facilities, working overtime, sleep adeq

This research project examined the epidemiology of occupational exposures to hazardous chemicals and agents among healthcare workers in Australia and Bhutan. Data from three population-based cross-sectional studies conducted in 2011, 2014 and 2016 in Australia were analysed and a cross-sectional survey was conducted in 2019 in three hospitals in Bhutan. The results indicate that a substantial proportion of healthcare workers in both countries were occupationally exposed to hazardous chemicals with exposure to asthmagens being the most common.

Abstract:
<p> Electronic Flight Bags (EFBs) are devices that replace the traditional paper documents used by pilots for pre-flight planning and in-flight operations. Simulation studies have found faster information retrieval times, higher situational awareness, and reduced workload on EFBs compared to paper resources, but it is unclear whether this is true for all EFB systems in any flight condition. Archival studies have uncovered issues among pilots using performance calculation software and electronic charts due to a lack of training and modification to flight deck procedures with EFBs.
