LOBATO CANON, José Rafael. Qualification and evaluation on occupational diseases: analysis of the current situation and proposals for improvement. Med. segur. trab. [online]. 2016, vol.62, suppl., pp.87-95. ISSN 1989-7790.

Introduction: Work is a source of development and social integration, but it can also be a source of health disorders, so that the worker loses his capacity and production effort that ensured their livelihood, and even their dependents. Social Security systems provide coverage to workers that have work-related diseases that impede them to maintain themselves and their families. Objective: Introduce the procedure for qualification and assessment of occupational disease. Methodology: Analysis of legal and jurisdictional concepts and criteria, as well as the development of scientific and practical support elements. Discussion: The criteria for qualification and assessment of occupational disease, are based not only in the inclusion of disease in Annex 1 RD 1299/2006, but also in establishing the clinical diagnosis and complementary tests, occupational exposure sufficient prior to the onset of the disease, consistent correlation between disease and the time interval between exposure and effect, and the absence of extra-occupational factors that have acted with enough intensity to form the basis of a differential diagnosis.
