Occupational disease refers to the diseases caused by workers in enterprises, institutions and individual economic organizations who are exposed to dust, radioactive substances and other toxic and harmful substances in their professional activities. The laws of all countries have provisions for the prevention of occupational diseases. Generally speaking, all diseases that meet the legal requirements can be called occupational diseases.
Contact with toxic chemicals, dust aerosol, abnormal meteorological conditions, high and low pressure, noise, vibration, microwave, X-ray, γ-ray, bacteria and mold used or generated in production; Long-term forced posture operation and continuous oppression of local tissues and organs can cause occupational diseases, which are generally called generalized occupational diseases.
Some of these occupational diseases are harmful and the diagnostic criteria are clear, which are approved and published by the relevant government departments according to the national conditions, and are called narrow occupational diseases or statutory (prescribed) occupational diseases.
If the China municipal government stipulates that it is diagnosed as a statutory (prescribed) occupational disease, the diagnosis department shall report to the competent health department; It is stipulated that patients with occupational diseases shall enjoy industrial injury insurance or occupational disease treatment in accordance with the relevant provisions of the state during the rest period of treatment and when they are disabled at work or die after ineffective treatment.
Some countries give economic compensation to patients with occupational diseases. Therefore, some countries refer to such diseases as diseases requiring compensation. The Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) on the Prevention and Control of Occupational Diseases stipulates that the diagnosis of occupational diseases shall be undertaken by medical and health institutions approved by provincial health administrative departments.
