Workplace Health Expert Committee. WHEC Seminar: Evaluating interventions in work-related ill health and disease

The prevention of disease and ill health caused by adverse factors at work will often require interventions to reduce the level of exposure to harm. This WHEC seminar outlines intervention principles where the circumstances of ill health are complex and the result of multiple possible environmental factors in and outside work. It discusses what could have happened if the interventions were not in place
