The Institute for Occupational Health was established in 1991, as part of Rambam’s commitment to preventive medicine. Today, the institute works with dozens of industrial employers, from Beer Sheva in the south, to Tel Hai in the north, to promote workplace safety and reduce accidents and occupation-related illness.
The institute works closely with the National Poison Information Center and the Toxicology Laboratory—both at Rambam Health Care Campus. Furthermore, with its extensive database, the institute supports industrial organizations in protecting the environment within and outside of their facilities.
