The early detection of occupational diseases is the main purpose of the health surveillance of workers exposed to occupational hazards. While health surveillance is one of the important approaches to occupational disease prevention (in addition to environmental monitoring and improved technology), promulgating legislation and organizing and training professional personnel could guarantee the implementation.
