Employee Health
ATLANTA, The
American Association of Occupational

that uncover
employer perceptions of and attitudes toward employee health.
- Key OHN
Hiring Indicators: For executives, the most common signals
that indicate the need to hire
an OHN:
-- High injury or illness rate
-- High absenteeism
-- Increase
in worker's compensation cases
-- Government mandates and compliance
- Employers
Unaware of Employee Health Impact: Only half of companies
interviewed said they do not know

Top four benefits
include:
-- Reduced worker's compensation
-- Better bottom line due to health

-- Reduced absenteeism
-- Reduced incidence of injuries/fatality
- Understanding the OHN Role: Executive management consistently defined
the roles
and activities of an OHN with the following descriptors:
-- Serve as gatekeepers for health
services
-- Provide treatment, follow-up and referrals, and emergency care for
job-related injuries
-- Work with employers on compliance with legal and regulatory
requirements (OSHA, FMLA, HIPAA)

The symposium brings together scientists and experts from academia and
private enterprise in an
effort to build a consensus about how the public
might best use genetic testing to understand their
own ancestry within a
valid scientific framework. Findings will be showcased
as a tool to help
the occupational health industry better understand the
mindset of corporate decision-makers and the
landscape of employee health from
the employer perspective.

publications have spurred
public interest in genetic testing, resulting in
the recent purchase by consumers of more than 150
,000 genetic ancestry
tests. Now, genetic tests can reveal remote
anthropological ancestry and
suggest proportions of various ethnic and
geographical origins such as Native American ancestry,
in a given person's
heritage. Genealogists should use the information for the test's intended
purpose

based on what they hoped they would
find," commented Dr. The
results from these tests may be used as identification tools when a DNA
sample is deteriorated or compromised or other DNA testing fails to yield
