Occupational diseases continue to pose significant challenges to worker health and productivity worldwide. This integrative literature review analyzes ten selected journal articles from 2019 to 2025 that discuss the role of early detection and workplace health interventions in preventing occupational diseases. Findings reveal that medical surveillance, routine check-ups, and AI-based stress detection technologies are effective tools for identifying health risks at an early stage. Workplace interventions such as ergonomic programs, chemical exposure controls, and community-based health promotion show measurable improvements in worker health and compliance with safety protocols. The Total Worker Health® framework by NIOSH emerges as a comprehensive strategy to integrate health protection and promotion in the workplace. However, implementation gaps remain, particularly in the informal sector, due to limited infrastructure and low awareness. This study concludes that combining early detection with structured health interventions, supported by strong policy and stakeholder involvement, is key to reducing occupational disease burdens.

This study evaluates the implementation of Behavior Based Safety (BBS) in improving occupational safety compliance at PT Wichindo Pratama, a heavy equipment manufacturing company with high work risks. The topic was chosen due to frequent violations of safety procedures, such as the improper use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and neglect of Standard Operating Procedures (SOP), which increase the risk of accidents. A qualitative method was used through direct observation, in-depth interviews with 12 shift workers, and field assessments of safety facilities. The findings show that although the company has an Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) management system, non-compliance still occurs. Issues include incomplete PPE usage, disorganized work tools, and unsafe rest habits. Observations revealed potential hazards such as physical (noise), chemical (oil exposure), ergonomic (awkward postures), mechanical (machine use without full PPE), biological, and psychological risks (stress from shift work). BBS is seen as a strategy to connect existing OHS policies with safe work behavior by focusing on mindset and daily habits. The implementation of BBS is expected to reduce accidents and support the creation of a safer, more sustainable workplace.
