Abstract
The nature of major causes of work-related ill health makes occupational health fit more closely than ever before into the public health agenda. The government has been quick to recognize the role of occupational health nurses in reaching the public health targets set in recent public health policy such as Saving Lives: Our Healthier Nation (1999). Securing health Together (HSC 2000) is one of the latest government strategies to reduce ill health caused by work and aims to meet the government's agenda to reduce health inequalities within the workplace. This long term occupational health strategy is one of several public health targets within the United Kingdom that has roots within Saving Lives: Our Healthier Nation (1999). The appropriateness of the current policy environment and the associated initiatives such as Securing health Together will now be discussed in order to identify how they evolved and whether the strategies currently in place are in fact conducive to achieving the selected health targets.
