Occupational Health - Goal and Aims

Hi all,

For every organization setting the goal is of prime importance. Without setting a goal it is impossible to remain focused for a long time. The goal will be the ultimate and ideal situation to strive for, for which each and every person in the organization should share, understand and strive towards a common goal. 

Below can be our defined goal and aims for the occupational medicine wing of the organization:

Goal- Betterment of health of employees all across the organization

Aim – Prevention of occupational diseases and Health Promotion

Once being defined as goal and aims, it implies that the entire activities of the occupational medicine wing will be planned in such a manner that each and every activity will lead to achieving the same. Objectives are defined from time to time to achieve the goal. 

Goal mentioned here will be a continuous process and will never be completed at any point of time. Only constant improvements are considered as the department or organization is moving towards the right direction. And achieving objectives can also be considered in the same fashion. 

As the goal is continuous in nature, which is achieved by many means and basically it will be the result of an integrated approach from various departments of the organization as discussed in the previous chapter, we restrict ourselves to medical means of achieving it and supporting others whenever necessary. Hence we mainly consider prevention of occupational health diseases and promotion of health is a way of contributing to it and set the same as our aim.
