Beyond Reputation: Debate on the Role of Corporate Influence in Occupational

and Environmental Medicine

na Rankin Bohme and Egilman

Abstract:

In his article in this issue, Tee Guidotti casts recent works addressing

corporate influence on occupational medicine as " collective act of

disparagement … undertaken … for political reasons. " We move beyond the

question of

reputation to address key conflicts in the history of occupational medicine,

including the American Occupational Medical Association's historical role in

weakening the beryllium standard and the American College of Occupational and

Environmental Medicine's recent efforts to limit the extent of the Family

Medical Leave Act. The corporate practice of externalizing health and safety

costs makes industry influence an important ongoing topic of debate in

occupational and environmental medicine.
