Occupational Hazard
This is IGN’s Cyberpunk 2077 walkthrough for Occupational Hazard, one of many Watson Gigs. Continue reading below for our Tips and Tricks on how to finish this mission without too much trouble.
Occupational Hazard is an SOS: Merc Needed gig that mostly revolves around a boss fight to save someone. After doing some work for The Mox, someone named Hal Cantos got into trouble when a braindance went wrong. Now you’ll need to find a way into the warehouse where he’s hiding for this rescue mission.

Occupational Hazard Walkthrough
Once you reach the Occupational Hazard mission marker, you’ll have two different methods to try and get inside. First, you can go in through the front door, but you’ll need level 5 Technical Ability to do so. Or, you can run around to the back of the warehouse where a yellow ladder leads to the roof. This is the better option of the two since you can see through some windows inside.
You can then take care of Anna Nox, a Mox Leader, in one of two ways:
- Hack Your Way to Victory: You can get around the shootout with Anna altogether through hacking. Use Breach Protocol on a piece of tech in the room to reduce the RAM cost of your quickhacks if you haven't already. Then, hack the nearby car lift to draw Anna's attention. While she's distracted by the car lift, deactivate the lift and she'll be crushed to death instantly.
- Shooting Your Way to Victory: Once you take a shot at Anna, a boss health bar will appear at the top of the screen. If you fight them from the roof, it doesn’t seem they can reach you. This provides a decent advantage for the fight against them.
When trying to make your way down into the warehouse from the roof, hop onto the yellow ceiling rafters, and then down onto a cargo container.
After you’ve finished taking out Anna Nox, you can either find Hal Cantos immediately or do a little exploring. If you wander upstairs into the back office, there’s a Mox member you can talk to. When asked about where Cantos is, all she’ll tell you is that he’s probably hiding somewhere downstairs. Head back over to that blue cargo container downstairs to get a knock option near the doors.
Once you’re done speaking with Cantos, the Occupational Hazard gig will be complete. Moments later you’ll get a phone call from Regina Jones as usual with your reward.
