| Abstract |
In nearly all European Union (EU) countries, employees are insured for work-related accidents and occupational diseases. Nevertheless, despite social harmonization efforts by the EU, the lists of occupational diseases still vary quite considerably from country to country. These differences are discussed using diseases of the shoulder girdle as an example. |
