title: Factors affecting the work of an occupational health nurse.
abstract: Society, economies, work-life and work are undergoing changes that will have global impact on occupational health services (OHS) and the work of occupational health nurses (OHNs) during the next 5-10 years. These changes will bring new challenges to both occupational health services and representatives of specialist groups within those services. The changes will require new ways of working, work methods, performance monitoring, and evaluation of impacts. These developments will also call for changes in the education of occupational health nurses.
