O-179 Development of a European job exposure matrix (EuroJEM) for physical workload within exposome project for health and occupational research (EPHOR)

Abstract

<h3>Introduction</h3> Job exposure matrices (JEM) for physical workload, developed in several European countries, have been utilized to examine associations between work demands and ill-health. However, it is unclear whether the measures these JEMs could be internationally generalizable. The aim was construct a JEM (EuroJEM) workload used epidemiological studies based on large cohorts. <h3>Materials Methods</h3> Literature search identified 14 JEMs. As starting point, three national gender-specific from Sweden, Norway Finland, showing similarities regarding exposures, definitions assessments, occupational classification systems, were selected. All self-reported exposures variants of ISCO-88(COM). Three harmonised: fast breathing due forward bent posture, heavy lifting. In harmonised EuroJEM, defined as being exposed at least ¼ time (fast posture) or daily (lifting andgt
