Abstract

Occupational medicine (OM) teaching is under-represented and inconsistent in UK medical school training. Unless universities take action, inadequate OM teaching provision will leave tomorrow’s doctors unprepared to support their patients to return to work after illness/injury, to remain at work and to identify occupational diseases. This Editorial presents a newly developed competency framework to assist universities to deliver OM education more consistently. This will support tomorrow’s doctors to achieve healthy working lives for their patients.
