Work-related diseases, injuries, risks and deaths are the issues that have been recently gaining importance especially in developing countries. The ethical dimensions of occupational health and safety have remained as relatively understudied areas. Concepts such as responsibility, consent, autonomy, paternalism, choice, and certain values or justifications that are used in medical ethics and bioethics are also applicable to occupational health and safety. This article examines the ethical issues of responsibility and consent to occupational risk. It will first define the concepts of consent and risk, and then different views on responsibility and consent to risk will be discussed. The article will also examine the responsibility of the society and government regarding these concepts.
与工作相关的疾病、伤害、风险和死亡是近年来尤其在发展中国家日益重要的问题。职业健康与安全的伦理层面一直是相对未被充分研究的领域。医学伦理学和生物伦理学中使用的责任、同意、自主性、家长主义、选择等概念以及某些价值观或理由也适用于职业健康与安全。本文探讨职业风险的责任和同意的伦理问题。它将首先界定同意和风险的概念,然后讨论关于风险责任和同意的不同观点。本文还将审视社会和政府在这些概念方面的责任。
