"You need healthy workers to have economic development and health is fundamental to an individual's ability to pursue opportunity, employment and personal growth." --Bruce Goldberg, M.D., DHS Director, April 3, 2009

The Oregon Occupational Public Health Program recognizes the importance of keeping workers healthy and safe. We use a variety of data sources to inform our efforts for prevention and outreach in order to prevent and reduce work-related injuries, illnesses, and deaths.
