Abstract

The real-life situations and anti-epidemic actions of people in places, cities, and spaces highlight the importance of the idea of “One Health” and the environment for occupational health. This paper presents an interdisciplinary analysis of the public health history and practical considerations of occupational health and the environment from a global health perspective, with “One Health” as the core concept. The realistic considerations include global health inequalities, complex sites, and ecological environments, new discoveries and uncertainties of occupational health diseases, occupational health and infectious diseases, chronic diseases, etc. The new “Hippocratic thinking” of occupational health and the “one health” idea based on sustainable development is proposed. The idea of “One Health” and the idea of “Human Health Community” provide feasible paths for occupational health development in line with environmental justice and social justice, and “One Health” can be used as a way to realize the “Human Health Community”. The idea of “One Health” can be used as a new strategy to achieve the “Human Health Community”.
