dc.description.abstractDeveloping countries have no. significant policies for occupational health. This analysis identifies four broad mechanisms through which state- and enterprise-level decision makers in developing countries diffuse attemps to instigate improvements in occupational health: inaction or stifling of such efforts during policy implementation; exercise of power; appeal to the existing bias (norms, rules, procedures) of the system; and prevailing dominant ideology. Addressing these limiting factors requires initiating a process of raising the occupational health policy profile that recognizes the importance of empowering workers' organizations, and enabling professionals to play an active role in the generation of occupational health knowledge required to improve occupational health in the developing countries.en_US
