Abstract :
The paper discusses the possibility of identifying and preventing certain occupational health hazards by assessing and evaluating a number of behavioral and psychophysiological responses induced by exposure to unfavorable environmental conditions at work. The main aspects of the research strategies and measurement methods used in this field of research are described to provide a background for the establishment of a policy of health promotion based on the monitoring of early behavioral and psychophysiological indices of functional CNS changes at the worksite.
