  • Title: Norwegian industry and health promotion 1910-1967.
    Author: Ibsen H.
    Journal: Dynamis; 1993; 13():155-72. PubMed ID: 11639588.
    Abstract:
    The development of occupational health services in Norway is explored by making a case study of both a chocolate factory and a cement factory. The study shows how different motives and ideological positions promoted the industrial health service. Prominent among them were a social and political philosophy, those of welfare capitalism, as an alternative to socialism and state policy in building the affluent society and the move toward improvements of production. All leading to a growing interest in the human factor in industry, where the medical officer should help to shape a satisfied, rational and productive worker in a healthy work environment.
