The effectiveness of occupational health and safety management system interventions: A systematic review
Lynda S. Robson,Judith A. Clarke,Kimberley Cullen,Amber Bielecky,Colette N. Severin,Philip Bigelow,Emma Irvin,Anthony J. Culyer,Quenby Mahood +8 more
TL;DR: The body of evidence was insufficient to make recommendations either in favour of or against OHSMSs, due to the heterogeneity of the methods employed and the OHS MSs studied in the original studies; the small number of studies; their generally weak methodological quality; and the lack of generalizability of many of the studies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Alexander M. Crizzle,Philip Bigelow,Diane Adams,Spencer E Gooderham,Anita M. Myers,Pierre Thiffault +5 more
TL;DR: A comprehensive review of the literature related to the health and wellness of truck (long and short-haul) and bus drivers in Canada and the USA found that long-haul truck drivers have multiple risk factors that can lead to various medical conditions and adverse events.
Journal ArticleDOI
Association of semen quality and occupational factors: comparison of case-control analysis and analysis of continuous variables.
TL;DR: The findings suggest that subtle changes in semen variables, possibly associated with workplace exposure, may be detected only with parametric analyses of continuous variables of semen.
Journal ArticleDOI
Research Gaps in Protecting Healthcare Workers From SARS and Other Respiratory Pathogens: An Interdisciplinary, Multi-Stakeholder, Evidence-Based Approach

Kathryn Nichol,Philip Bigelow,Linda O'Brien-Pallas,Allison McGeer,Michael Manno,D. Linn Holness +5 more
TL;DR: Multivariate analysis showed 5 factors to be key predictors of nurses' compliance with the recommended use of facial protection, including full-time work status, greater than 5 years tenure as a nurse, at least monthly use of face protection, belief that media coverage of infectious diseases impacts risk perception and work practices, and organizational support for health and safety.
