Occupational Medicine is the medical specialty which covers the multi-faceted relationship between health and work. It is concerned with ensuring that workplaces and work practices are safe and not harmful to employees’ health and that employees are fit for the job they are doing. Occupational physicians typically deal with traditional occupational diseases such as occupational asthma and dermatitis as well as those caused by exposure to noise, vibration and asbestos. They manage common health problems in the workplace such as stress, back pain and upper limb pain and are also involved in assessments of fitness for work, vocational rehabilitation, advising on adjustments to support employees in employment and advising on retirement on the grounds of ill health. Occupational physicians must have an understanding of epidemiology, disease prevention and toxicology. They have to be able to identify, assess the risk to health of, and know how to control workplace hazards and also know how to recognise, prevent and manage occupational disease. They also advise management on these risks and on their implications for employees’ health and for business continuity. Occupational medicine combines clinical and preventative work.
