This chapter on health screening in occupational health describes common screening procedures in occupational health practice, such as pre-placement examination, health surveillance, and examinations prior to job reassignments. It covers biological monitoring and biological effects monitoring and discusses examples of specific screening tests such as executive health screening, genetic screening, and screening for drugs and alcohol. This chapter also reviews theoretical and technical issues in screening such as the characteristics of a screening test, for example, sensitivity, specificity, predictive value, likelihood ratios, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. The advantages and disadvantages of screening, practical and ethical aspects of screening, and finally the evaluation of screening programmes are discussed.
