“…For the Dutch construction industry WHS is the most important route for detecting ODs (in more than 90% of the OD cases). An OD was defined as a disease with a specific clinical diagnosis (International Classification of Diseases 10th Edition, ICD-10 classification) that was predominantly caused by work-related factors 6. NCOD provides OPs with reporting guidelines including criteria for clinical and work-related diagnosis.…”

“…One study (van der Molen et al, 2012) found workers in mining and quarrying in the Netherlands had the second highest annual incidence of occupational illness per 100,000 worker years (second only to construction workers). While breakdowns of the types of illness per sector were not provided, mental illnesses were the most frequently recorded type of condition (van der Molen et al, 2012).…”

While breakdowns of the types of illness per sector were not provided, mental illnesses were the most frequently recorded type of condition (van der Molen et al, 2012). In Australia, a qualitative study of 10 miners found that those workers identified possible mental health concerns as part of their occupation, with particular mention of depression and stress (Mclean, 2012).…”

Australia is one of the world's foremost mining nations. While the economic and employment benefits of the mining industry are well documented, potentially negative aspects of mining industry employment are less understood. It has been suggested that mining industry workers may be more likely than workers in other occupations to experience relationship problems and work-family stress, but there is very little empirical study examining this proposal. Data from the nationally representative Household, Income, and Labour Dynamics in Australia (HILDA) survey were used to compare males employed in the Australian mining industry with males working in other occupations, on indices of relationship quality and work-family balance, as well as mental and emotional health. Employment in the resources sector was not associated with poorer outcomes on these measures, relative to other occupations. These results suggest that hypothesised connections between mining industry employment and relationship/family stress require careful examination.

“…All Dutch‐registered OPs with known email addresses ( n = 1773) were asked by the NCOD to participate. The aim of this study was: (1) to give a more accurate number of (reported) ODs for large worker groups by addressing under‐reporting of ODs by OPs possibly due to lack of knowledge or motivation by special training and attention; and (2) to estimate incidence figures of ODs enabled by the knowledge of the size and characteristics of the workers' population at risk (Van der Molen et al., 2012a). The registration procedure was the same as in the regular NCOD register and therefore complied to the legislation with regard to notification of ODs.…”
