Abstract
Background and Purpose: Occupational diseases (ODs) and work-related diseases are important issues that affect work life and involve economic, medical, social, and ethical dimensions. The aim of this study was to develop a scale to measure the attitudes of physicians working or likely to work on the diagnosis and notification of ODs toward occupational health and OD.
