The scale purports to assess the extents/degree of health of an occupation or job which affect employees’ job behaviour and health. Three dimensions of occupational health included in scales are physical, psychological and social. The scale has desirable psychometric properties, including high internal consistency, reliability and construct validity. The scale satisfactorily validates with certain criterion measures, such as physical and psychological health, job satisfaction and job performance.
