Sažetak

Occupational diseases arising as a direct consequence of exposure to hazardous and noxious impacts witnessed at workplaces still represent a major global, yet not duly recognised and duly appreciated health issue. Therefore, one has every reason to tag them as “a silent epidemic of our times”. This article brings relevant occupational disease statistics and summarises the key health, economic and social aspects of this problem, together with a global solving strategy viewed as the most appropriate by the institutions of merit.
