There is also a surveillance system for occupational and environmental
diseases, to detect cases presenting at health-care facilities. The
Bureau of Occupational and Environmental Diseases under DODC is
responsible for monitoring and developing policies and strategies on
prevention and control of occupational and environmental diseases.
For noncommunicable disease, surveillance of behavioural risk factors
is conducted by the Bureau of Noncommunicable Diseases in order to
monitor risky behaviour that contributes to chronic diseases.
