Terminology project in environmental health care

The Finnish Terminology Centre TSK, National Supervisory Authority for Welfare and Health and Consumer Agency started in December 2008 a terminology project related to the development of data collection for environmental health care.

It will define about 50 concepts on the subfields of environmental health care, i.e. health protection, control of chemicals, tobacco and product safety. The vocabulary will contain Finnish term recommendations and definitions and equivalents in Swedish and English.
