Jobrelated

Job-related is an adjective used to indicate a relationship to an individual's employment or occupation. It describes tasks, skills, injuries, illnesses, hazards, or requirements that arise from or are connected to a job.

In occupational health and safety, job-related injuries or illnesses are those caused by or occurring in the course of employment. Workers' compensation programs typically classify conditions as job-related when a causal link to work duties or work environment is established. In human resources, job-related competencies refer to the knowledge and abilities necessary to perform the duties of a specific role.

Common phrases include job-related training, job-related stress, job-related hazards, and job-related information in employment records. The term can apply to education or certifications tied to a particular job, such as a job-related qualification required for a position.

Relation to work-related: The terms are closely related and often used interchangeably, but they can carry different nuances. Work-related generally refers to any connection with work as a broader activity, while job-related emphasizes a direct link to a specific job, role, or employer.

Variations and scope: Some jurisdictions or organizations use occupational or employment-related terms with similar intent. Definitions vary by policy, law, or context, but the core idea remains a link between the subject and employment.
