An occupant monitoring apparatus capable of suppressing a failure due to water flooding is provided. An occupant monitoring device captures an image of a driver of a vehicle by an imaging unit, projects light toward a driver's seat by an illumination unit, and controls operations of the imaging unit and the illumination unit by a control unit. The driver is monitored based on the image captured by the imaging unit, and the monitoring result is output. The main substrate on which the control unit is mounted is housed in the housing 5, and the sub-substrate is held by the lid 6 closing the opening of the housing 5. A transmission unit that directs the imaging unit and the illumination unit mounted on the sub substrate to the driver's seat side, electrically connects the main substrate and the sub substrate, and transmits the projected light from the illumination unit and the reflected light from the driver The sub-substrate, the cover 6, the housing 5 and the like are covered from the driver's seat side by the water proof cover 7 having 7t.
