Medical surveillance is the systematic assessment of employees exposed or
potentially exposed to occupational hazards. This assessment monitors
individuals for adverse health effects and determines the effectiveness of
exposure prevention strategies. A medical surveillance program includes the
analysis of both individual and aggregate surveillance data over time, with the
goal of reducing and ultimately preventing occupational illness and injury.
