Diseases
Access resources relevant to major internationally recognized occupational diseases, ranging from illnesses caused by chemical, physical and biological agents to respiratory and skin diseases, musculoskeletal disorders and occupational cancer.
Cancer
Includes a breadth of diseases characterized by the uncontrolled division of abnormal cells in a part of the body which can result in a malignant tumour. Exposures to certain chemicals, minerals and materials as well as radiation and the environment are known to cause cancer in some people. Common occupational types include lung, mesothelioma, and bladder cancer.
Lung / Respiratory
Includes conditions and diseases affecting the lungs and respiratory tract, such as asbestosis, silicosis and and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD).
Cardiovascular
Includes diseases of the heart and circulatory system, such as hypertension and coronary artery disease.
Sensory
Includes diseases which affect vision, hearing, and touch, such as deafness, blindness, and hand-arm vibration syndrome (HAVS).
Reproductive
Includes diseases, such as sterility and birth defects, which impact stem cells, developing fetuses, and associated organs.
Neurological
Includes diseases affecting the brain, spinal cord and the central nervous system, such as migraines, epilepsy, and Parkinson's.
Skin / Dermal
Includes diseases and conditions affecting the skin from external as well as systemic exposure, such as dermatitis and poison ivy.
Communicable / Infectious
Includes diseases passed from person to person through airborne or body fluid transmission, such as influenza, food poisoning, and MRSA.
Irritation / Sensitivity / Allergy
A subset of skin and lung diseases involving increasing sensitivity and severity, such as chloracne.
Organs / Systems
Includes diseases of the liver, kidney and body systems, such as cirrhosis, kidney disease and nausea.
Cognitive / Psychological
Includes diseases which affect mental processing and mood, such as anxiety, depression and dementia.
