目的：描述职业医学(OM)医师的职业道路模式。方法：采用方便抽样的方法，对129名职业医师在20年前、第一个OM岗位和预期10年后的几个职业点的工作活动和地点进行描述。结果：临床活动始终是重要的(例如，41%和46%的职业医师报告20年前和现在经常治疗患者)。执业地点发生了更显著的变化，多地点诊所和以医院/医疗中心为基础的诊所增加了。在过去20年中，在第一份工作中主要从事临床活动的比例从82%上升到97%。临床和非临床角色之间的职业转换很常见(40%的参与者)。许多人预计将在10年内过渡到非临床工作。结论：活动没有根本改变，但实习地点发生了变化。临床和管理活动仍然很重要，而通往管理职位的道路越来越多地开始于临床实践。
Objective:To describe career path patterns for occupational medicine (OM) physicians.Methods:A convenience sample of 129 occupational physicians described work activities and locations at several career points up to 20 years ago, first OM position, and 10 years after expectations.Results:Clinical activities were important throughout (eg, 41% and 46% of occupational physicians reported frequently treating patients 20 years ago and currently). Practice locations changed more markedly, with increased multisite clinics and hospital/medical center-based practices. Performing mainly clinical activities in a first job increased from 82% to 97% over the past 20 years. Career transitions between clinical and nonclinical roles were common (40% of participants). Many anticipate transition to nonclinical work over 10 years.Conclusions:Activities have not fundamentally changed, but practice locations have evolved. Both clinical and management activities remain important, and path to managerial positions increasingly begins in clinical practice.
