ABSTRACT
PURPOSE: This study was performed to obtain baseline information about the occupational and environmental medicine(OEM) residency programs in Korea. METHODS: We surveyed 39 residents for the present training condition, satisfaction, vision of OEM, the condition and satisfaction after residency programs by self- administered questionnaire. RESULTS: Residents want to get appropriate clinical and practical training to be a medical director in a factory or specialist of the occupational medicine based at a hospital. They report, however, that current system for OEM residency training program is not appropriate. The curricula, duration of the each curriculum, level of training hospital or institute need to be reconsidered. CONCLUSIONS: We need to develop more systematic residency program with support from government and OEM society.
