Data on training capacity and output from these institutions were collected and analyzed.

Main Results:

Twenty-one institutes across India were identified as training occupational health specialists.
The collective training capacity is approximately 460 specialists per year.
This capacity is insufficient to serve India's large working-class population.

Urgent planning and implementation of diverse strategies are required to address this human resource deficit.
Policy interventions are needed to bolster the occupational health workforce to support industrial growth and worker well-being.
