N2  - Physicians who are board-certified in occupational and environmental medicine often have formal training and experience in toxicology, epidemiology, and industrial hygiene, as well as clinical medicine, human physiology, and pathology, and are well suited to be team members in the various phases of risk assessment, communication, and management. Those with several years of experience in the clinical, as well as administrative practice of occupational and environmental medicine, are engaged in the practical application of risk characterization, risk communication, and risk management on an almost daily basis. We propose that the occupational and environmental medicine physician is in a unique position to bridge the communication gap between those professionals who provide various components of the risk assessment process and those who manage those risks in society.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
