What is occupational hygiene?
Occupational hygiene aims to prevent illness caused by workplace hazards. It does this through recognizing, evaluating, and controlling hazardous agents via a multidisciplinary approach involving chemistry, toxicology, physics, biology, engineering, and law. Hazards include chemicals, physical agents like noise and vibration, biological agents, and ergonomic risks. Risk is determined by assessing the hazard and level of worker exposure. Controls follow a hierarchy starting with eliminating or substituting the hazard, then using engineering controls, administrative controls like safe work practices, and finally personal protective equipment. Occupational hygienists play a key role in anticipating hazards, conducting exposure assessments, and advising on prevention strategies to protect worker health.
Occupational hygiene physical and biological agents
Occupational hygiene involves anticipating, recognizing, evaluating and controlling workplace hazards that could impact worker health and safety. An occupational hygienist uses techniques like observation, interviews and measurement to assess potential hazards and protection levels. Hazards can be chemical, physical or biological in nature. The hygienist evaluates exposure routes, characterizes risk groups, conducts sampling and recommends controls like engineering solutions or personal protective equipment. Occupational exposure limits set standards for air contaminant concentrations to protect workers. Labels and material safety data sheets provide hazard information. The globally harmonized system aims to standardize chemical classification.
Occupational health hazards
An occupational hazard is a hazard experienced in the workplace. Occupational hazards can encompass many types of hazards, including chemical hazards, biological hazards (biohazards), psychosocial hazards, and physical hazards. In the United States, the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) conduct workplace investigations and research addressing workplace health and safety hazards resulting in guidelines. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) establishes enforceable standards to prevent workplace injuries and illnesses.
Industrial hygiene
Occupational hygiene focuses on anticipating, recognizing, evaluating, controlling and preventing hazards in the workplace that can cause injury, illness or negatively impact worker well-being. It involves identifying potential hazards, evaluating exposure levels, and using controls like engineering solutions or personal protective equipment to reduce risks. Occupational hygiene benefits both workers and industry by improving health, reducing costs from injuries and absenteeism, and increasing productivity and efficiency.
Industrial Hygiene
The document discusses various workplace hazards grouped into four categories: chemical, physical, ergonomic, and biological. It provides examples and details of common hazards within each category. The goal of industrial hygiene is to anticipate hazards, recognize their effects, evaluate exposures, and implement controls to protect worker safety and well-being. The document emphasizes that occupiers have a responsibility to be aware of hazards, design safer systems, and encourage proper safety procedures through good management.

Occupational Health hazards
Occupational health hazards can be chemical, physical, biological, or ergonomic in nature. Chemical hazards refer to exposure to toxic substances which can cause both acute and chronic health effects impacting major organ systems. Physical hazards include noise, vibration, temperature extremes, radiation, and illumination issues. Biological hazards arise from exposure to bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites. Ergonomic hazards are due to improperly designed tools, workstations, tasks or environments which can cause musculoskeletal disorders. Stress is also an occupational health issue with physiological, behavioral and psychological manifestations if not properly managed.
Occupational disease
Occupational diseases are caused by exposures in the workplace. They include diseases of the musculoskeletal system, respiratory system, skin, and others. Occupational diseases are diagnosed through occupational history, physical exam, tests, and identifying exposures. Prevention strategies include controlling hazards, substituting less hazardous materials, engineering controls, personal protective equipment, screening workers, and medical management of diseases. The goals are primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention to avoid, identify early, and minimize the impacts of occupational diseases.
Occupational diseases 11
Occupational diseases are diseases that are caused or aggravated by the work or work environment. Some key points:
- Occupational diseases can have varying time frames between exposure and symptoms, from immediate to decades later.
- Major causes of occupational diseases include physical, chemical, biological, and psychosocial hazards. Common examples are respiratory diseases from dusts or fumes, musculoskeletal disorders, and work-related stress.
- Prevention of occupational diseases involves controlling exposures through substitution of hazardous materials, engineering controls, administrative controls, personal protective equipment, and health monitoring programs. The goal is primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention.
Occupational health and safety
Occupational health aims to promote and maintain workers' physical, mental, and social well-being. It involves addressing industrial hygiene, diseases, accidents, hazards, and rehabilitation. Components include preventing departure from health due to work conditions; protecting workers from health risks; and adapting the work environment and workers to their jobs. Key occupational hazards are physical, chemical, biological, mechanical, and psychosocial factors that can negatively impact health.

Here are a few possible reasons why the government has not banned BPA more quickly:
1. Chemical companies that produce and use BPA in plastics manufacturing exert significant lobbying influence. Banning chemicals could hurt their profits.
2. The effects of low-dose exposure to endocrine disrupting chemicals like BPA are complex and long-term. It's difficult to definitively prove health impacts, which gives chemical companies arguments against regulation.
3. Government agencies tend to be more conservative in banning chemicals already in wide use. They prefer to see overwhelming scientific consensus first before taking drastic regulatory action.
4. Alternatives to BPA must be developed, tested and brought to market. Transitioning entire industries to new

Silica in construction
- Construction workers face significant health risks from exposure to silica dust, which can lead to fatal lung diseases like silicosis. Over 500 workers in the UK are estimated to die from silica exposure each year.
- Exposure measurement studies show that workers performing tasks like drilling, demolition, and concrete grinding often experience respirable silica exposures above the UK limit of 0.1 mg/m3. Long-term or high-level exposures increase the risk of developing silicosis.
- Effective dust control measures during tasks that generate silica dust, such as using water sprays or extraction tools, are needed to reduce worker exposures and health risks from silica.

Lifting the load - reducing the burden of occupational disease in the uk
The document discusses occupational diseases in the UK construction industry. It notes that while 39 workers fatally in construction accidents in 2012-2013, occupational diseases pose a much larger burden, with an estimated 13,000 deaths per year from work-related illness. Major causes of occupational illness include asbestos exposure (almost 5000 deaths/year), silica exposure (1000 new cancer cases/year), and diesel exhaust exposure (1000 cancer cases/year). The document calls for continued efforts from organizations like the HSE, employers, unions, and occupational hygienists to recognize health hazards, evaluate exposures, control risks, and prevent occupational illness through engineering solutions, work practices, and PPE.
Occupational cancer what you need to know
Approximately 8,000 workers die every year in Great Britain from occupational cancer. Controlling exposure to carcinogens at work involves recognizing hazards, evaluating exposures, and controlling them. The hierarchy of control recommends prevention through engineering controls, work practices, and personal protective equipment in order of preference. Occupational hygienists can help employers implement controls and locate guidance to address cancer risks like asbestos, silica, and diesel exhaust.
Dust exposure, effects, limits, control
This document discusses occupational exposure to industrial dust, including an estimated 9.2 million workers exposed in the UK. Dust exposure can occur through handling powders, cutting materials, and disturbing settled dust. Health effects include respiratory diseases, irritation, fibrosis, COPD, asthma, and lung cancer. Evaluating risks involves initial and detailed surveys. Studies on brick making and stone cutting found many workers exposed to respirable crystalline silica above recommended limits. Risk of silicosis increases significantly with exposure levels over 15 years. Controlling dust involves prevention through engineering solutions, work practices like wet cutting, PPE, and measures like exposure time reduction, supervision, training and health surveillance.
Feeling the heat for slideshare

Novas diretrizes da OMS para os cuidados perinatais de mais qualidade
Novas diretrizes da OMS para os cuidados perinatais de mais qualidadeProf. Marcus Renato de Carvalho
Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.
