The Journal of Occupational and Environmental Hygiene (JOEH) publishes investigations that enhance the knowledge and practice of occupational and environmental hygiene and safety in the workplace and community. We publish peer-reviewed research studies that examine exposures, risks and controls that can be used to understand how exposures relate to health outcomes, and how these can be managed to the betterment of society.

The JOEH publishes studies across a range of investigation types, including laboratory investigations, field studies, simulations, and secondary data analyses to help understand occupational and environmental hygiene. Stressors relating to adverse health outcomes are the main focus of the JOEH , including chemical, biological, radiation, noise, ergonomics, and psychosocial hazards, including how work-life organization affects these exposures.

Relevant topics include:
- Method development to assess exposures, including sensor technology, analytical methods, and field sampling equipment
- Exposure assessments and models that are generalizable across an identified population(s)
- Risk assessments and models relating health outcomes to exposures
- Exposure determinants that identify significant contributions to exposures
- Control strategies (design, performance) to minimize exposures and disease risks
- Personal protective equipment assessments and strategies
- Emergency preparedness and response
- Exposures and risks of special populations that are underrepresented in the literature
- The changing workforce and environment
- “Big data” management and analysis
- Emerging hazards affecting health and safety

Impactful papers are those that address topics above and also identify relevant populations. For technical manuscripts, authors must fully describe research methods – including equipment, study plan (sample size, recruitment, etc.), data analysis, and relevant environmental characteristics. Papers need to be generalizable and should not merely report site-specific monitoring results without providing relevance to a broader population. The Journal also welcomes reviews and commentaries related to the topics above.

The Journal of Occupational and Environmental Hygiene (JOEH) is a joint publication of the American Industrial Hygiene Association (AIHA®) and ACGIH®.
