Occupational and Environmental Health Professionals develop, implement and evaluate policies and programs to monitor environmental health and occupational health and safety and related legislation to ensure safe and healthy working conditions, and assist injured staff through the workers' compensation and rehabilitation process.
You usually need a formal qualification in occupational health and safety, environmental health, environmental science or another related field to work as an Occupational and Environmental Health Professional. Vocational Education and Training (VET) and university are both common study pathways.
