Study selection
This viewpoint was conducted a thorough search for qualitative and quantitative studies that reported findings on hazards associated with various occupations spanning from 2000 to 2023. The inclusivity of our search extended to studies conducted both in the United States and internationally. However, to maintain language consistency, studies not published in English language were excluded. The scope of our inquiry aimed to gather comprehensive insights into occupational hazards across diverse settings and geographic locations. The selected timeframe allowed us to capture a broad spectrum of relevant research conducted over the past two decades.
