AB - <jats:sec> <jats:title>Abstract:</jats:title> <jats:p>Work is a social determinant of Cardiovascular (CV) and general health and can both influenceand be influenced by health. The type of work, working conditions, and work environmentare fundamental social determinants of CV and general health status. Climate change presents anurgent and increasing threat to workers' health, via both direct exposure to environmental risks andthe indirect worsening of social and health inequalities. Occupational health, which focuses on thepromotion of mental and physical health and well-being of workers, and the avoidance of occupationrelatedhealth risks, is a crucial but less discussed concern and component of human health. Relevantresearch at the intersection of climate change and occupational health remains scarce. Additionally,mitigation of climate change and adaptation efforts are driving forces for rapid transformations in theworkplace, including shifts towards sustainability and circular economy models. These transitions arecreating new occupational hazards, including those concerning renewable energy and the circulareconomy sectors. Investment in occupational health research and surveillance should be increased toaddress the evolving influences of both climate change and the green transition, to enhance and protectworkers' CV and general health. Among the work-related factors that play an important role inpatients with CVD, the following seem crucial: work participation, physical and mental work capability,appropriate work, support from and flexibility of the work environment, inter-personal communication,person-centered milieu, and interdisciplinary communication. A moderate leisure-time physical activitycombined with moderate occupational physical activity may be a more plausible way to combine thesetwo activities to sustain and/or improve CV health. Such an approach may be able to ameliorate workrelatedoutcomes
