Abstract

Many people may not realise that they use epidemiologic information to make daily decisions affecting their health. From reading nutritional information on food packaging to walking 10,000 steps every day-these health behaviours are underpinned by epidemiologists’ assessment of risk. Generally speaking, environmental risks to health are defined as all the external physical, chemical, biological, and work-related factors that affect a person’s health. This chapter summarises current debates about environmental and work-related risk factors for tinnitus. Topics span genetic, physiological, behavioural and environmental domains, demography, and lifestyle.
