About The Journal

 

 

Zagazig Journal of Occupational Health and Safety” is a peer-reviewed journal that considers original research related to the field of occupational health and safety . “Zagazig Journal of Occupational Health
and Safety is aimed at physicians, occupational hygienists and researchers in the wide-ranging discipline
of occupational and environmental health and safety. The field is devoted to the diagnosis, prevention, management and scientific analysis of occupational , environmental and safety health problems; it also covers the promotion of health of workers, their families, and communities

Scope and Coverage of ZJOHS
ZJOHS scope include mainly the following research areas:
1. Behavioral Sciences - Includes behavioral and psychological problems, diseases, disorders of workers, psychogenic illness, worker motivation, job stress, shiftwork, behavioral engineering, and group dynamics. Includes machine and workplace studies.
2. Occupational Bioethics
3. Control Technology -. Includes descriptions of personal protective equipment and clothing and other equipment used to control exposure and reduce hazards. Also include information about the testing of control and measuring equipment.
4. Education - Includes reports and evaluations of efforts to develop or to implement occupational safety and health curricula for training physicians, industrial hygienists, nurses, safety engineers, and related technicians.
5. Environmental health
6. Occupational Epidemiology - Includes studies about the incidence and distribution of diseases,
disorders, and injuries among workers. Includes reports of interactions with other factors such as alcohol, smoking, and drug use if the occupation is a variable in the study.
7. Ergonomics - Includes studies on the interaction of equipment, machines, work environment, and man. Includes physical stress studies in man and animals as they relate to man in the workplace
8. Health Physics - Includes research on physical agents such as ionizing and non-ionizing radiation, noise, vibration, and other physical agents that affect the worker. Discussions of methods used to control the effects of these agents should be included. Of particular interest are those studies which examine exposure incidence, intensity, source, and character of physical agents.
9. Occupational heath management
10. Occupational Medicine - Includes reports of case studies, clinical reports, surveillance, monitoring, analysis and diagnostic techniques of industrial health care. Includes reports about industrial nursing.
11. Occupational Safety and Health Programs - Includes articles that give specific details of industrial
health and safety programs, promotion of occupational safety and health awareness, delivery of health services, and other occupational safety and health related programs designed to protect the worker.
12. Pathology and Histology - Includes descriptions of structural and functional changes in tissues and organs caused by occupational exposures. Includes studies that concern histological techniques that
lead to diagnoses of occupational disease.
13. Safety - Includes reports of the prevention of traumatic occupational injury. Includes articles about the protection of workers by equipment, clothing and procedures. Accident-prevention studies should be
included. articles, news items, or safety data sheets..
14. Toxicology - In-vivo and in-vitro studies of the effects (positive or negative) of exposure to biological
and chemical agents in the workplace. Includes discussion of carcinogenic, teratogenic, mutagenic, and reproductive effects on workers and their progeny. Does not include theoretical, aquatic, plant, or
invertebrate toxicology studies unless the relationship to worker exposure is stated in the article.
15. Hazardous Waste - Includes reports which describe occupational safety and health at hazardous
waste sites; health effects on employees, their families and persons living in close proximity to the
hazardous waste site.
