  • Occupational safety. The prevention of accidents and injuries in the workplace.
  • Occupational health surveillance. The monitoring of the health of workers to identify and prevent health problems.

Workplace occupational health is important because it can help to prevent injuries, illnesses, and deaths in the workplace. It can also help to improve the productivity and morale of workers.
