Readers will probably be aware of the two friendly societies associated with the dental profession, the Dentists' Provident Society Ltd. and the Dentists' and General Mutual Benefit Society, which offer permanent sickness cover to their members. They may not be aware, however, that these societies are part of a wider movement which at one time offered almost the only available protection for the worker against the expenses of sickness and death.
读者可能已经了解与牙科行业相关的两个互助会，即牙医公积金协会有限公司和牙医及普通互助福利协会，它们为会员提供长期疾病保险。然而，他们可能不知道，这些协会是一个更广泛运动的一部分，该运动曾经几乎是工人抵御疾病和死亡费用的唯一可用保障。
