Climate change is rapidly reshaping the global occupational safety and health landscape, creating new workplace risks while intensifying existing ones. Rising temperatures, extreme weather events, environmental degradation, and changing disease patterns are increasing concerns surrounding worker health, safety, and well-being across a wide range of industries. These challenges are especially significant for workers in sectors heavily exposed to environmental conditions, while also affecting emerging industries connected to sustainability and the green transition. In response, the One Health approach has gained increasing importance by recognizing the interconnected relationship between human, environmental, and occupational health. As climate-related risks continue to grow, there is a pressing need for integrated, multidisciplinary strategies that strengthen resilience, improve workplace protections, and support healthier and more sustainable working environments. One Health Perspectives on Climate Change and Emerging Occupational Health Risks explores the direct and indirect connections between climate change and occupational health, focusing on emerging workplace risks across diverse industries through a One Health perspective. Bridging interdisciplinary perspectives from environmental health, occupational safety, public health, and sustainability studies, this book examines how climate-related changes are reshaping worker well-being while emphasizing integrated approaches to resilience, prevention, and long-term health protection for the global workforce. Covering topics such as occupational health indicators, climate-vulnerable occupations, and occupational health risks, this book is an excellent academic resource for graduate and doctoral students, occupational health and safety professionals, labor organizations, healthcare professionals, risk management professionals, NGO's, policymakers, and more.
