Abstract

Cancer is one of the main causes of morbidity and mortality in Spain and has a significant impact in the workplace, where exposure to carcinogens in the work environment can increase the risk of developing this disease. The lack of communication between oncologists and occupational physicians limits the accurate assessment of cancer as an occupational disease and as a cause of disability. In 2020, the Spanish Society of Medical Oncology (SEOM) and the Spanish Association of Occupational Medicine Specialists (AEEMT) launched a joint initiative to strengthen prevention, reporting, and management of occupational cancer. This consensus provides a structured framework for assessing the occupational origin of cancer, facilitating case notification and classification as occupational contingencies, and supporting informed evaluations of disability and work reintegration in patients with cancer. The collaboration between both societies aims not only to advance occupational cancer prevention but also to promote evidence-based strategies for return-to-work planning.

SEOM-AEEMT关于职业性癌症和癌症相关残疾的共识。

癌症是西班牙发病率和死亡率的主要原因之一，对工作场所有重大影响，在工作环境中接触致癌物会增加患这种疾病的风险。肿瘤学家和职业医生之间缺乏沟通，限制了对癌症作为一种职业病和致残原因的准确评估。2020年，西班牙肿瘤医学学会（SEOM）和西班牙职业医学专家协会（AEEMT）发起了一项联合倡议，以加强职业性癌症的预防、报告和管理。这一共识为评估癌症的职业起源提供了一个结构化的框架，促进了病例通报和职业意外事件分类，并支持对癌症患者的残疾和重新融入工作的知情评估。两个协会之间的合作不仅旨在促进职业性癌症的预防，而且还旨在促进以证据为基础的重返工作规划战略。

期刊介绍： Clinical and Translational Oncology is an international journal devoted to fostering interaction between experimental and clinical oncology. It covers all aspects of research on cancer, from the more basic discoveries dealing with both cell and molecular biology of tumour cells, to the most advanced clinical assays of conventional and new drugs. In addition, the journal has a strong commitment to facilitating the transfer of knowledge from the basic laboratory to the clinical practice, with the publication of educational series devoted to closing the gap between molecular and clinical oncologists. Molecular biology of tumours, identification of new targets for cancer therapy, and new technologies for research and treatment of cancer are the major themes covered by the educational series. Full research articles on a broad spectrum of subjects, including the molecular and cellular bases of disease, aetiology, pathophysiology, pathology, epidemiology, clinical features, and the diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of cancer, will be considered for publication.
