It involves the prevention and treatment of work-related injuries and illnesses, as well as the promotion of overall health and safety in the workplace. Occupational medicine practitioners may assess workplace environments, provide medical care to injured workers, conduct health screenings, and develop strategies to prevent occupational hazards. This field aims to protect and promote the health of employees, thereby improving productivity and reducing healthcare costs for employers.
