Message from the Editor

Dear ICOH members,

Warm greetings to all. Welcome to the first edition of the ICOH Newsletter for 2026. As we step into the third year of the 2024-2027 Triennium, I extend my sincere thanks to all members who contribute their time, ideas, and dedication to our shared mission.

Reflecting on the past year, our community has shown remarkable resilience in the face of rapidly evolving global trends and various regional disruptions. In particular, our heightened interest and insightful discussions regarding “Climate Change and Worker Health� and “AI and Occupational Health� have demonstrated our shared commitment to protecting workers in a changing world.

These ongoing challenges remind us of the critical importance of our work and the need for continued solidarity and collaboration within our community. While these issues present complex challenges, your dedication transforms them into opportunities for progress.

This first issue of the year features a wide range of news and reflections that highlight the vibrant spirit, resilience, and creativity of ICOH members worldwide. From expanding initiatives to international collaborations, I encourage each of you to remain actively engaged whether by sharing updates, exchanging insights, or participating in upcoming events.

Your involvement ensures that the ICOH Newsletter continues to be a meaningful and inclusive platform for learning and connection. I am deeply grateful for your unwavering support and for making us closer together as a global family.

Thank you for being part of this global community. Let us move forward together into 2026, with purpose and hope.
