Occupational Health Informatics.

Occupational Health Informatics is the field concerned with the optimal use of information to maximize occupational health and well-being, achieved by multidisciplinary professionals using appropriate technologies. The occupational health community should advocate for the recording of occupation in electronic health record systems. Data linkages can be created between occupation, disease, function and exposures to inform occupational functionality, recognition and recording of occupational diseases, disability accommodation and work as a health outcome.
