Abstract:
Abstract Mental health problems have surpassed musculoskeletal injuries as causes of work disability. Workers in certain occupations may have high risks for mental health problems and premature death even after retirement. People in high risk occupations for many years may be particularly vulnerable, along with groups with higher health risks such as rural residents. Little research examines their occupation-related risks. No research has examined how occupational exposures affect mental health in retirement. We studied these life course risks using the nationally representative Panel Study of

Abstract:
Occupational infertility in the male has been a recognized entity since the identification in 1978 of the testicular toxicity of the nematocide 1,2-dibromo-3-chloropropane (DBCP) in factory workers producing it and farm workers using it. DBCP remains the best documented chemical testicular toxin, its effect being confined purely to testicular germinal epithelium. There is increased recognition of employer responsibility for workplace health and safety accompanied by a growing threat of litigation from affected persons. This has led to fertility risks within occupations also being considered, a

Abstract:
This study explores the intricate interplay between gender, occupation, and mental health using data from the 2020 EU-LFS ad hoc module on 38,066 female professionals in Western Europe. We examine their exposure to work-related risks impacting mental health, focusing on variables such as work overload, violence, and challenging client interactions. Our primary objective is to discern how various occupations contribute to distinct experiences of work-induced strains. Key findings challenge the compensating differential theory, according to which the lower wages in female-dominated occupations a

Abstract:
The ongoing industrial revolution also includes the health and safety domain, which assists this development process. The participants and beneficiaries of this revolution don’t have to endure a lowering of the protection levels from the beginning of it. Consequently, the health and safety domain needs to play its role in this historical stage. The risks of injury and illness are managed from the beginning, when the technological processes are being developed, on each production stage, until the end of every technological process. In order to achieve this, the professional risks must be identi

Today, in accordance with the requirements of Russian legislation, the employer is obliged to ensure the creation and functioning of a labor protection management system, one of the critical elements of which is the procedure for assessing and managing occupational risks. The paper aims to study the existing training programs on occupational health and safety related to issues of occupational risks and analyze the competencies of occupational health and safety specialists, who are entrusted with duties related to the assessment and management of occupational risks.

Relevance. Currently, a significant number of approaches to the assessment of occupational risks as a result of exposure to harmful and dangerous factors of industrial activity are presented in the scientific, regulatory and legal literature. To assess occupational risks for the personnel of fire protection, risks of injury, morbidity, disability and mortality are calculated. However, no single method exists for calculating the integral index for final assessment of occupational health risk in personnel of Federal Fire Service (FFS) of EMERCOM of Russia.Intention: To develop a mathematical mod

Abstract:
Existing approaches to occupational risk assessment more often involve evaluating its group levels and individual risks are assessed less frequently. These approaches provide deterministic risk assessment which doesn’t take into account uncertainty in risk categorizing when its values are close to boundaries between adjoining risks categories. It substantiates the necessity to assess occupational risk levels using probabilistic methods. Our research object was occupational risk and the basic subject was distribution of individual occupational risk levels among workers. Our test group was made

Abstract:
Globally, almost 2.78 million deaths that occur annually are attributed to work-related health risks. Worldwide and, especially, in developing countries, about 20% to 50% of the workers are exposed to health risks. Fishing is an ancient occupation, and like many others, it is characterized by numerous health risks and hazards. This study sought to understand the exposure of fisherfolk to human health risks, through fish handling and processing in Lake Baringo, Kenya. The study adopted a cross-sectional social survey design. A systematic random sampling technique was used to select respondents
