International Journal of Occupational Safety and Health

Aims & Scope

International Journal of Occupational Safety and Health (IJOSH) is an international peer-reviewed open-access journal covering occupational health, safety, and workers' health including homemakers and students.

It provides occupational health physicians, ergonomists, nurses, occupational hygiene, and health and safety professionals with a dependable single source of proficiently written legal, practical, and management occupational health information.

IJOSH welcomes original research submissions which relate to the full range of chemical, physical, ergonomic, biological, and psychosocial hazards in the workplace and to environmental contaminants and their health effects and the safety standards and interventions.

Research aimed at improving the evidence-based practice of occupational medicine and research on the development and application of novel methods, including biological and statistical techniques is also of interest.

In addition, we publish meta-analysis, systematic reviews, review articles, editorials, commentaries, case studies and letters to the editor, which provide a forum for debate.
