Description
This article addresses the ethical competence of occupational health professionals (OHPs). Ethical dilemmas and moral challenges are part of everyday life in occupational health (OH), increasingly requiring that OH practitioners are competent in dealing with these issues. According to Susanne Rameix of the Sorbonne University of Paris, ethics is not a science, (1) nor is it an institutionalised system of regulations. It is a matter of knowing what to do. Since the days of Socrates, philosophers have engaged the difficulties of teaching ethics. A fundamental question occupying the minds of philosophers is whether or not there is a universal set of values more or less shared by countries and different world cultures. It does seem possible to discern a set of basic values transcending most cultures with reference to the importance of 'anti-egotist' (in contrast to 'egotist') values emphasising social considerations and collective interests over the interests of individuals.
