In this issue of Occupational Medicine

Evidence-based practice is a theme running through this issue of Occupational Medicine. In ‘Occupational medicine: paradise lost’, Paul Nicholson [1] discusses the crisis which occupational medicine finds itself in. He suggests the need for a better focus on the internal and external issues and recommends a clear strategy to address these, underpinned by primary research to improve the knowledge and evidence base for practice. An important resource producing high-quality reviews of evidence in occupational health is Cochrane Work [2]. This resource can assist practitioners in identifying what we should implement from the evidence for what works, and where the evidence shows we should change practice.
