An experimental Occupational Health and Safety Center was established as a pilot project for Israel in the Givat Shaul industrial area of Jerusalem. The center provides occupational health services to those working in its vicinity and is particularly oriented to employees of small enterprises (i.e., fewer than 20 employees). In addition to the routine occupational health services supplied by each occupational health clinic in Israel, the Center's staff also performs safety and hygiene inspections at workplaces, and provides social care services for the working population of the area. This paper summarizes the first year of the project's activities, particularly those of the clinical staff and the safety technician. Projected future activities are also outlined. The effectiveness of this project is currently under study and will be finally evaluated by an independent Hebrew University research team. If their evaluation shows the project to have been successful, establishment of similar centers in other parts of the country will be considered.
一个实验性职业健康与安全中心在耶路撒冷的吉瓦特绍尔工业区作为以色列的一个试点项目而设立。该中心为其周边地区的工作人员提供职业健康服务，尤其面向小企业（即员工少于20人的企业）的员工。除了以色列每个职业健康诊所提供的常规职业健康服务外，该中心的工作人员还在工作场所进行安全和卫生检查，并为该地区的劳动人口提供社会关怀服务。本文总结了该项目第一年的活动，特别是临床工作人员和安全技术员的活动。还概述了预计未来的活动。该项目的成效目前正在研究中，最终将由希伯来大学的一个独立研究团队进行评估。如果他们的评估显示该项目取得成功，将考虑在该国其他地区设立类似的中心。
