"This viewpoint delves into the transformative role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in occupational medicine, highlighting its profound impact on preventive healthcare. AI's integration into various aspects of occupational health is reshaping diagnostics, risk assessment, and healthcare administration. The paper emphasizes AI's learning, planning, reasoning, and problem-solving capabilities, which are pivotal in enhancing diagnostic accuracy for conditions like occupational tumor detection and longterm health effects from exposure to low-level hazards of chemicals. AI may be valuable for monitoring workplace health and safety, employing predictive analytics for early risk detection, and preventing occupational injuries and work-related diseases. In this viewpoint, the authors explore AI's role in managing health data through natural language processing, aiding physicians in clinical documentation and patient communication. It is needed to address ethical challenges related to AI implementation in the healthcare sector and occupational health practice, such as data protection and decision-making accountability. In conclusion, AI may expand worker training and health literacy scope, demonstrating its comprehensive utility in fostering a safer, healthier, and more informed workforce in occupational health settings"
