arbejdsrelaterede

Arbejdsrelaterede is a Danish adjective describing anything that originates in or is connected to work or the workplace. It is used to label conditions, events, or outcomes caused by employment or the working environment, distinguishing them from issues not tied to work.

In practice the term is common in occupational health, safety, medicine and labor law. Typical phrases include arbejdsrelaterede skader (work-related injuries), arbejdsrelaterede sygdomme (work-related illnesses), arbejdsrelaterede forhold (work-related conditions) and arbejdsrelateret stress (work-related stress). The form arbejdsrelaterede is used before plural nouns or before common gender singular nouns; the corresponding singular neuter form is arbejdsrelateret.

The concept is central to health surveillance, risk assessment and compensation schemes. Classifying an issue as work-related influences prevention efforts, workplace accommodations and eligibility for compensation under relevant laws and social security provisions. In policy and research contexts, distinguishing arbejdsrelaterede factors helps quantify occupational risks and guide interventions.

Etymology and usage notes: the term is a compound adjective formed from arbejde (work) and relateret (related). It is widely understood across professional and public Danish discourse and appears in clinical reporting, safety documentation and regulatory texts.
