Occupational categorization

To evaluate occupational health, we categorize work into four groups based on work factors and the work environment. This helps assess health risks and monitor workers’ well-being.

Hazardous work involves elevated risks of work-related illnesses, poisoning, or harm linked to job tasks.

Hazardous work is the work included in the third and fourth categories.

Inclusion of work in the third and fourth categories decided Regional Public Health on a proposal from the employer or on its own.
