\begin{block}{Motivation}
Fine particulate matter (PM) is the recognized risk factor that can cause respiratory and other diseases. Some environmental regulations have been established to protect public people from health concerns. However, it still needs more criterion to understand the fine PM-induced health effects for each occupational population and to further conduct the health protection strategy. This study aims to provide a quantitative summary the fine PM-associated health risk for workers in workplaces.
\end{block}
\begin{block}{Methods}
\textbf{\textit{Literature search.}} Relevant studies were identified in several stages, beginning with a systematic search using the keywords of fine particulate matter, workplace, and occupational in the abstract, with the results restricted to studies of occupational population. An initial search was conducted in July 2015 and updated automatically through December 2015. \textbf{\textit{Inclusion and exclusion criteria.}} studies were included in the current meta-analysis if they provided quantitative risk estimates of hazard ratio, risk ratio, or odds ratio. \textbf{\textit{Statistical analyses.}} All study estimates were converted to risk ratio to represent the change under fine PM exposure. Estimates from the studies were combined using both fixed- and random-effects model, which allowed between-study heterogeneity to contribute to the variance.

\begin{block}{Workplace Fine PM-associated occupational mortality}
We summarized the result of the fine PM-associated mortality of respiratory and other diseases, which include lung cancer, ischemic heart disease, and cerebrovascular disease. The result shows that lung cancer has the highest risk ratio with insignificant heterogeneity. Random-effects estimation also indicated the consistencies between studies.

\begin{block}{Environmental Fine PM-associated occupational mortality}
To understand the ambient fine PM-associated the health risk of mortality, this study finds that the cardiovascular disease mortality and heart disease mortality are related to fine PM exposure for workers who have no occupational exposure to fine PM in the workplaces. However, we can only find few reference that focuses on the relationship between fine PM and occupational population.

\begin{block}{Discussion}
\begin{itemize}
\item In this analysis, we focused attention on fine PM, which is prominent component of the air pollution. We divided the two different scenarios to quantify and understand the exposure risk for the occupational population. Current result shows that most studies had investigated the exposure risk of fine PM in the workplace. However, we also need to pay more attention to the occupational population who may have potential exposure risk to fine PM from ambient environment.
\item Most of the data were obtained from cohort studies; We did not place any restrictions based on whether or not a study adjusted for specific confounders. Therefore, homogeneity tests found the difference in estimates between exposure assessment techniques.
\item A large number of hypothetical studies would be required to construct a symmetrical analysis and change the results of our meta-analyses.Results for mortality risk of lung cancer from fine PM was robust to influence analyses in occupational exposure, where the meta-estimate was recalculated with the systematic exclusion of each study.
