Definition of Occupational Disease职业病的定义 • Two main elements are present in the definition of an occupational disease: 职业病的定义包括两个要素 • the causal relationship between exposure in a specific working environment or work activity and a specific disease; and 某一疾病与接触某一工作环境或从事某一工作存在的因果关系 • the fact that the disease occurs among a group of exposed persons with a frequency above the average morbidity of the rest of the population. 接触特定环境工作的人群患某一疾病频率高于其他人群
Classes of Occupational Disease (ILO)职业病的分类 1. Diseases caused by agents由不同因素导致的职业病 1.1 Diseases caused by chemical agents 化学因素导致的职业病 1.2 Diseases caused by physical agents 物理因素导致的职业病 1.3 Diseases caused by biological agents 生物因素导致的职业病 2. Diseases by target organ特定器官疾病 2.1 Occupational respiratory diseases职业呼吸道疾病 2.2 Occupational skin diseases职业皮肤病 2.3 Occupational musculoskeletal diseases职业骨骼疾病 3. Occupational cancer职业性癌症 4. Others其它
Some problematic characteristics存在的一些问题 • Results from cumulative (chronic) rather than acute exposure 结果来自长期积累(慢性)而非急性接触 • Delayed onset conditions推迟了发作因素 • Not unique to occupational exposures 有些职业病不仅限于职业接触引起
Compensation赔偿 • Applied for (typically) after diagnosis 诊断后申请 • Application likely to be successful if [a] employed in a known high risk occupation for specific condition; [b] documented exposure to hazard; and [c] clinical diagnosis/impairment 如具备以下条件申请可能成功:1.受雇于高危行业;2.有接触致危因素的条件;3.医疗诊断/损伤 • Most WCBs recognize presumptive cases (firefighters and some cancers, coal miners and silicosis, construction workers and HAVS) 大多数工伤赔偿局接受以下推理的情况为职业病(消防员与一些癌症,煤矿工人与矽肺病,建筑工人与手臂振动综合症 • Can extend into retirement 赔偿可以延续到退休以后
Treatment治疗 • Occurs in the regular health care system在正规医疗卫生系统进行 • Not tied to compensation but if pensionable, then award may include medical costs (e.g., drugs) not normally paid for in health care system与赔偿无关,如果可以领养老金,赔偿则会包括医疗卫生系统通常不会支付的医疗费用(如某些药品) • Some specific occupational clinics in larger centres (e.g., occupational medicine, HAVS etc), by referral, additional costs paid for by insurer大中心的一些特定职业诊所(如职业药物、手臂振动综合症等)的转诊病人,额外费用由保险公司支付 • Some specialized clinics (e.g., pain clinics) – by referral, additional costs paid by insurer一些特定门诊(如疼痛门诊)的转诊病人,额外费用由保险公司支付 • Insurer may institute active return to work policies including treatment, job accomodation, ergonomic redesign etc保险公司会遵守相关规定,包括治疗、重新安排工作、根据人体工学重新设计等。

Types of control控制类型 Engineering Controls工程控制 -MOST EFFECTIVE最有效 Process control – change how job is done 过程控制-改变工作方式 Isolation/enclosure of emission source隔离/关闭排放源 Ventilation通风 Administrative Controls 管理控制–CAN BE UNRELIABLE可能靠不住 Scheduling/job rotation/rest periods日程安排/工作轮换/休息时间 Work Practices工作实践 Emergency preparedness应急准备 Personal Hygiene个人卫生 Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) - CAN FAIL WITHOUT WARNING 个人防护用品-如果无警告可能无效
