Preventing Occupational Disease

The 30th edition of the EPICOH Conference will take place on 6 – 9 October 2025 in Utrecht, the Netherlands.

EPICOH, the scientific committee on Epidemiology in Occupational Health, is a leading international network focusing on issues of occupational exposures and their human health effects. The main goal of EPICOH is to promote communication among epidemiologists, industrial hygienists and other occupational health researchers worldwide. This to create healthier workplaces around the world, where every worker is protected from work-related health risks.

The theme of this edition of the EPICOH conference is “Preventing Occupational Disease”. The prevention of occupational diseases requires trans-disciplinary research, involving etiological studies, exposure studies and the development of early-warning systems. We will focus on the scientific process as well as the use of scientific knowledge in policy. During the conference we will highlight this trans-disciplinary research and inspire impact and implementation of scientific knowledge in the real-world.
