Scope
Humans generally encounter more health hazards and safety risks in the workplace than in their living environment, and the study of occupational health and safety saves lives and advances the understanding of our environment. This section will publish significant articles on all aspects related to occupational health and safety, from theoretical exploration to the practical application. Particularly, papers on the following domains will be considered: (1) occupational medicine, (2) industrial hygiene, (3) injury prevention, (4) ergonomics, (5) occupational nursing, (6) health promotion, (7) occupational health policy and regulation, (8) toxicology, (9) risk assessment, (10) health surveillance, (11) personal protective equipment, (12) return to work, and (12) research methodology. While Occupational Health and Safety is primarily focused on field studies, laboratory experiments and evaluations of policies and theories will also be welcome. The ultimate goal of this section is to prevent diseases and injuries in the workplace, to promote the health of workers, and to advance the knowledge of health hazards and risks in the environment.Indexed in: PubMed, PubMed Central, Scopus, DOAJ, CrossRef, Science Citation Index Expanded, CLOCKSS

Occupational Health and Safety welcomes submissions of the following article types: Brief Research Report, Correction, Editorial, General Commentary, Hypothesis and Theory, Methods, Mini Review, Opinion, Original Research, Perspective, Policy Brief, Review, Specialty Grand Challenge, Systematic Review and Technology Report.
All manuscripts must be submitted directly to the section Occupational Health and Safety, where they are peer-reviewed by the Associate and Review Editors of the specialty section.
Articles published in the section Occupational Health and Safety will benefit from the Frontiers impact and tiering system after online publication. Authors of published original research with the highest impact, as judged democratically by the readers, will be invited by the Chief Editor to write a Frontiers Focused Review - a tier-climbing article. This is referred to as "democratic tiering". The author selection is based on article impact analytics of original research published in all Frontiers specialty journals and sections. Focused Reviews are centered on the original discovery, place it into a broader context, and aim to address the wider community across all of Public Health.
