O-23 Prevalence and factors associated with occupational noise induced hearing loss among employees of an international airport of West Bengal, India

Abstract

Two studies reported Basic Occupational Health Services including Primary health care system as a promising strategy to fulfill the gaps in areas of surveillance, prevention and treatment of OH hazards and health issues. Conclusion Occupational Health service provision even though excludes current legal framework in informal sectors, few efforts are done towards recognizing and fulfilling this gap. The solidification of OHS can be done by exploring its integration with primary health care set up of India in existing scenario.
