Each day, over 145 million workers in the U.S. — and several billion individuals around the globe — face the risk of work-related injuries and illnesses that can cause serious immediate or long-term health problems. Members of the Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) Section are individuals involved in preventing work-related injuries, illnesses, disabilities and deaths through research, training, treatment, advocacy and policy-making.
Our Section is one of the oldest within APHA, advocating for the health, safety, and well-being of workers, families, communities, and the environment since 1914. We have 700+ 成员, representing a multitude of disciplines from medicine, nursing, and industrial hygiene to epidemiology, environmental health, 统计, community organizing, teaching, history, law and journalism.
The Section provides leadership and expertise on occupational health matters, recognizing the intrinsic link between the work environment, and the health and safety of families, communities and the environment at large.
