Beyond the job exposure matrix (JEM): the task exposure matrix (TEM). [PDF]
The job exposure matrix (JEM) has been employed to assign cumulative exposure to workers in many epidemiological studies. In these studies, where quantitative data are available, all workers with the same job title and duration are usually assigned similar cumulative exposures, expressed in mgm(-3)xyears.

A Quantitative General Population Job Exposure Matrix for Occupational Noise Exposure [PDF]
AbstractOccupational noise exposure is a known risk factor for hearing loss and also adverse cardiovascular effects have been suggested. A job exposure matrix (JEM) would enable studies of noise and health on a large scale. The objective of this study was to create a quantitative JEM for occupational noise exposure assessment of the general working ...

General population job exposure matrix applied to a pooled study of prevalent carpal tunnel syndrome [PDF]
A job exposure matrix may be useful for the study of biomechanical workplace risk factors when individual-level exposure data are unavailable. We used job title–based exposure data from a public data source to construct a job exposure matrix and test ...

Capturing occupational risk of airborne disease: An international job-exposure matrix based on five exposure factors [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to construct a job-exposure matrix (JEM) for the risk of being infected by infectious agents through airborne or droplet transmission in an occupational setting, which might lead to a respiratory disease.

Respirable crystalline silica and lung cancer in community-based studies: impact of job-exposure matrix specifications on exposure–response relationships [PDF]
OBJECTIVES: The quantitative job-exposure matrix SYN-JEM consists of various dimensions: job-specific estimates, region-specific estimates, and prior expert ratings of jobs by the semi-quantitative DOM-JEM.

A less detailed job axis in a quantitative job-exposure matrix results in a similar exposure-response association. [PDF]
Introduction Quantitative job-exposure matrices (JEMs) have been developed to assign exposure using International Standard Classification of Occupations (ISCO)-68 coded job information. For extended compatibility with the less detailed ISCO-88 coding, a quantitative JEM using the same underlying model was developed.

Development of a quantitative job exposure matrix for standing, walking, and forward bending among pregnant workers – The PRECISE JEM [PDF]
OBJECTIVES: Occupational physical activity (OPA) during pregnancy has been linked to adverse pregnancy outcomes, but crude exposure assessment remains an issue in causal inference. We aimed to develop a quantitative trimester-specific job exposure matrix
