ABSTRACT

This composite indicator is a measure which outlines quality life and health status of Navi Mumbai traffic police. Traffic workers face a complex working environment of air pollution, persistent noise, heat, ergonomic, and operational stress, with which is related to poor health outcomes. The cross-sectional study will be based on convergent evidence offered by Indians regarding their triangulation of subjective and objective findings of 400 personnel, which will have been estimated. Main measures are spirometry, audiometry, musculoskeletal, mental health screen, and WHOQOL-BREF quality of life tool which is related to onsite exposure monitoring (PM, noise, heat). The estimated health outcome indicates that the pulmonary dysfunction will be high, hearing loss due to noises, musculoskeletal conditions would occur and the quality of life would be compromised. Exposure outcome associations shall be uncovered using analytics to inform a matrix of the locally viable interventions that are based on evidence. The anti-honking imposition, heat control, the duty rotation, the organized personal protection equipment initiative, and the regular health examination are some of the recommendations that could be adopted. The proposed systematic review (assessment plan) aims to assist in the formulation of the policies and occupational risks mitigation, as well as health outcomes of the force based on one-divisional health dashboard.
