Abstract

General good health and the prevention of specific "non-occupational" disease, in addition to protection against occupational disease and injury, are already part of the aim and function of occupational health services. They are justified, if at all, mostly on the grounds of intangible benefits the virtue of which is not questioned. Concern over health costs and financial constraints are forcing industry to justify health expenditure. Yet, the health programmes can be justified, and industry has some obligation to adopt them.

摘要

除了预防职业病和职业伤害外，促进总体健康以及预防特定的“非职业性”疾病，已然成为职业健康服务目标和功能的一部分。如果说这些目标和功能有合理性的话，大多是基于一些无形的益处，而这些益处的价值是毋庸置疑的。对医疗成本的担忧和财务限制正迫使企业为健康支出做出合理说明。然而，健康项目是合理的，企业也有义务采用这些项目。
