Diabetes, hypertension and cancer are the most common NCDs throughout the world. Several factors such as lifestyle, environment and genetic influences, obesity, alcohol intake, unhealthy diet, lack of physical activity, side effects of various agents, environmental pollution/factors are responsible for developing NCDs among common people. Workers, who are engaged in different industries, are also suffering from occupational non-communicable diseases. Various factors such as unmanageable workloads, insecurity of employment, poor relationship with colleagues, inadequate support from superiors, repetitive work, lack of knowledge, job strain etc. are responsible for the higher prevalence of occupational NCDs. To minimize the risk of developing occupational NCDs, different steps such as improved healthy lifestyle, increase physical activity, reduce job stress and strain, maintain work-rest cycle, periodic health check-ups and awareness programmes should be taken on a regular basis.
