Occupational Disease

An occupational disease is a disease or disorder that is
caused by the work or working conditions.
This means that the disease must have developed due to
exposures in the workplace and that the correlation
between the exposures and the disease is well known in
medical research. Or put in another way, it must not be
likely, beyond reasonable doubt, that the disease was
caused by factors other than work.
Examples of occupational diseases:
Tennis elbow
Allergy
Hearing loss
Asthma
Exposures in the workplace that may cause some of the
above diseases:
Repetitive work movements
Work with arms lifted above shoulder height
Heavy lifting work
Work in a very noisy environment
Work with hazardous substances
When there is adequate medical documentation that a
disease is caused by a certain exposure, the disease is
included on the list of occupational diseases.
The list of occupational diseases is a list of work-related
diseases which are recognised as industrial injuries if a
person has had certain exposures in the workplace. The list
is constantly updated so that it covers the most recent
research. This is done by the Occupational Diseases
Committee, which is composed of representatives from i.a.
the Danish Board of Health (Sundhedsstyrelsen), the
Working Environment Authority (Arbejdstilsynet), and the
parties to the labour market.
Recognition of an occupational disease
In order for you to get compensation and other benefits as a
consequence of a disease, the disease must be recognised
as an industrial injury.
A disease can be recognised in two different ways:
If the disease and the exposure causing the disease are
on the list of occupational diseases, we recognise the
disease as an occupational disease
If the disease is not on the list of occupational
diseases, it is still possible to recognise it as an
occupational disease if the Occupational Diseases
Committee, in their recommendation, state that it is
likely, beyond reasonable doubt, that the disease was
caused by special factors in the workplace
