New Research in Work-Related Diseases, Safety and Health, 2nd Edition

Topic Information

Dear Colleagues,

Modern technologies (e.g., electromagnetic fields associated with the widespread use of digital technologies, exposure to nanoparticles and new chemical substances) and new work organization strategies have been introduced to address changing economical and working conditions, including work-related stress, emotional load, various forms of shift work, work involving a high static load, and sedentary work. These factors may contribute to the emergence and development of lifestyle diseases, including cardiovascular diseases. Working conditions influence the manifestation, acceleration and worsening of diseases that are common among the general population and have a multi-causal etiology. Thus, such diseases are considered “work-related diseases”. They constitute a significant medical, social and economic problem because they cause absence owing to long-term sickness, the partial or permanent inability to work and significant economic losses. For this reason, they should be of particular interest to medical professionals, those providing occupational health services, hygienists, and policy makers, among others. This Topic, titled “New Research in Work-Related Diseases, Safety and Health, 2nd Edition”, will cover a wide range of issues related to health hazards at work and in the environment and their consequences for people’s health and well-being. The aim of this Topic is to create a common platform for specialist collaboration to identify the main obstacles related to people’s health security. This Topic is interdisciplinary, spanning the following journals: Healthcare, IJERPH, Safety, and Behavioral Sciences. The aims of the individual journals are in line with this Topic’s overall objective.
