title: [Doctors' assessment of occupational injuries. Regulations and working methods].
abstract: Many medical practitioners deal with occupational injuries and diseases. Norwegian employees, military servicemen, fishermen, students and schoolchildren are entitled to specific social insurance benefits in the event of occupational injury (injury at school) or occupational disease. In most cases the social insurance office requires a medical assessment from the doctor. Adequate knowledge of the social insurance regulations and good working methods for medical assessment contribute to fair administrative decisions and help the doctor to deal with such cases. The authors present the part of the regulations most relevant for medical practitioners, and describe suitable working methods.
