Frontiers and Challenges in Occupational Safety and Health [PDF]
Frontiers in Public Health, 2014 Most people work to make a living, but unfortunately many at the cost of their safety, health, and even lives. The International Labour Organization (ILO) estimated that each year poor occupational health and safety led to 271 million injuries, 160 million occupational diseases, and 2 million work-related deaths (1).

A bookshelf on occupational health and safety. [PDF]
American Journal of Public Health, 1975 The effects of exposure to toxic substances and poor conditions of work on human health have long been known. Hippocrates' description of lead poisoning, Pliny's use of sheep bladders as respiratory masks in the year 1 A.D., and the descriptions of the health hazards of mining by Paracelsus, Agricola, and Ramazzini are evidence of this.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Noise‐induced synaptopathy (NIS) is largely reversible due to self‐repair. NIS and noise‐induced hidden hearing loss are two concepts with similarities and differences. The major hearing deficits in NIHHL are temporal processing disorders. The translation of animal data in NIS studies to humans is hindered by many factors.
