This resource is a video abstract of a research paper created by Research Square on behalf of its authors. It provides a synopsis that's easy to understand, and can be used to introduce the topics it covers to students, researchers, and the general public. The video's transcript is also provided in full, with a portion provided below for preview:

"Depression is a global public health issue—one battled not only at home and in the clinic, but also in the workplace. In the United States alone, major depressive disorder is associated with an annual loss of 225 million workdays and more than $36 billion. While treatment should be designed to relieve depression symptoms, it should also help patients recover their social functioning, which includes their capacity to perform at work. Unfortunately, little information exists on how treatment duration or discontinuation affects impaired work functioning in people with depression. Now, a large-scale analysis of workers in Japan is helping researchers understand that relationship. The findings urge close collaboration between occupational health practitioners and psychiatrists in treating patients with impaired work functioning. Researchers surveyed more than 33,000 workers from 13 companies in Japan, all of them in manufacturing—an industry linked to a high overall occupational health risk..."

The rest of the transcript, along with a link to the research itself, is available on the resource itself.

This is a video of 1 min and 33 seconds, showing an illustration of how acetylcholinesterase inhibitors work in the human body. This can be a useful video if you teach about pesticides and their health effects.

This is a short video clip of work in a brick factory in Asia. You can use the clip for educational purposes teaching occupational Health; and focus upon a discussion of different work factors causing a risk for health.

This is a very short video where you see a man at the top of the scaffold; he is jumping down as a method for bringing a sack of cement up. You may use this video clip as a start of a discussion about how to make a work place like this safe; what to do and not to do.

In this short video of 25 seconds we illustrate how organic solvents work. This can be a helpful demonstration in classes where you teach about organic solvents and health effects. Organic solvents dissolve fat. Here we watch two dishes. One contains water, the other contains white spirit. White spirit is a mixture of organic solvents which for instance is used in paint. When oil is added to the water, you see that the oil gathers in bubbles at the top, and the fat does not dissolve in the water. When oil is added to the white spirit, the oil immediately disappears, as it dissolves into the white spirit. This is how organic solvents work – they dissolve fat. This is relevant for humans because our nervous system is normally protected by fat tissue. The organic solvents remove this protection and harm the nerves and the brain.

The video below is from the main office of OSHA, Occupational Safety and Health Authority in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, 2016. The video can be used to illustrate how such an unit is working; if you teach occupational Health.

This is a video clip of 1 min 36 seconds showing how to measure noise levels at a work place. You may use this video if you teach in occupational health about how to measure noise.

This video illustrates the difference between restrictive versus obstructive lung function impairment. The video can be used as a demonstration of these types of lung diseases in a lecture.

This a video of 45 seconds, showing an interview with a Tanzanian expert on pesticides; telling how dangerous pesticides can be for human Health. This can be used in teaching, to inspire students to learn about pesticides and health effects.

This is a short video clip demonstrating a prosthesis and made in a workshop producing such orthopaedic devices.

You can use the video for educational purposes if you teach about rehabilitation at the work place.

This is a video of 1 min 50 seconds which demonstrates how you can sample dust in a work environment. The video can be used for educational purposes if you teach this topic in occupational Health

This is a video clip of 45 seconds that show a construction work site in Asia, demonstrating noise, dust and vibration at this work place. You can use this video for teaching purposes if you teach occupational Health. Here these work exposures are demonstrated clearly.

This s a video of 1 min 27 seconds where you can see how a radiologist works and how he can become exposed to x-rays and how he can prevent radiation exposure.

You may use this to demonstrate this kind of work if you for instance teach in occupational health about radiation and Health.
The video is from Tanzania.
