AB  - Work is a social determinant of Cardiovascular (CV) and general health and can both influence and be influenced by health. The type of work, working conditions, and work environment are fundamental social determinants of CV and general health status. Climate change presents an urgent and increasing threat to workers' health, via both direct exposure to environmental risks and the indirect worsening of social and health inequalities. Occupational health, which focuses on the promotion of mental and physical health and well-being of workers, and the avoidance of occupationrelated health risks, is a crucial but less discussed concern and component of human health. Relevant research at the intersection of climate change and occupational health remains scarce. Additionally, mitigation of climate change and adaptation efforts are driving forces for rapid transformations in the workplace, including shifts towards sustainability and circular economy models. These transitions are creating new occupational hazards, including those concerning renewable energy and the circular economy sectors. Investment in occupational health research and surveillance should be increased to address the evolving influences of both climate change and the green transition, to enhance and protect workers' CV and general health. Among the work-related factors that play an important role in patients with CVD, the following seem crucial: work participation, physical and mental work capability, appropriate work, support from and flexibility of the work environment, inter-personal communication, person-centered milieu, and interdisciplinary communication. A moderate leisure-time physical activity combined with moderate occupational physical activity may be a more plausible way to combine these two activities to sustain and/or improve CV health. Such an approach may be able to ameliorate workrelated outcomes in patients with CVD. Finally, lifestyle interventions targeting multiple behaviors are also mos
