Occupational Exposure Questionnaire

The Occupational Exposure Questionnaire (OEQ) systematically documents workers' exposure to physical, chemical, biological, ergonomic, and psychosocial hazards in their occupational roles. Used by occupational health practitioners and researchers, the OEQ captures frequency, duration, and intensity of hazard exposure, enabling identification of high-risk workers, validation of job exposure matrices, and epidemiological investigation of occupational disease. The OEQ is foundational for occupational health surveillance and regulatory compliance (OSHA, EPA, HSE standards).
