Occupational health and safety management: managers ’ organizational conditions and effect on employee well-being
This study contributes to the existing literature in the field of OHSM by placing explicit focus on the role of organizational conditions for conducting OHSM. By studying not only the link between work environment and health, but also focus on the underlying organizational structures for OHSM, provides additional possibilities for prevention of the increasing work-related illness. As such, this paper contributes to a more holistic perspective in the field of OHSM. (Source: International Journal of Workplace Health Management)

Biogenic crocetin-crosslinked chitosan nanoparticles with high stability and drug loading for efficient radioprotection
In this study, we developed a biogenic crocetin-crosslinked chitosan nanoparticle with high stability and drug loading for efficient radioprotection. In detail, the nanoparticles were prepared using the natural antioxidant crocetin as a cross-linking reagent in amidation reactions of chitosan and mPEG-COOH. The nanoparticles exhibit a quick scavenging ability for common reactive oxygen species and reactive nitrogen in vitro. Meanwhile, cellular experiments demonstrate the good biocompatibility of the nanoparticles and the alleviation of radiation damage by scavenging reactive oxygen species, reducing apoptosis, and inhibit...

Disparities in death at work: reflections on occupational injury fatality data
Despite many advances in workplace health and safety globally, worker death at work or from work remains an unfortunately common occurrence, and an enormous public health challenge on a global scale. The most recent global estimates, produced jointly by the WHO and the International Labour Organisation (ILO), show that the number of worker fatalities from occupational traumatic injury has not shifted this century. The WHO and ILO estimate a total of 363 283 acute occupational injury fatalities in 2016.1 These are a subset of the total estimated 1.9 million annual worker deaths from occupational exposures.1 The main causes ...
