Abstract	The University of Connecticut's Occupational Medicine Residency Training Program was established in the fall of 1993 in response to recognized national needs for training in the field of worker health as well as in the broader area of environmental hazards. This innovative model for training in Occupational and Environmental Medicine (OEM) at UCHC represents a linkage between multiple stakeholders in the government, labor, corporate, and research communities, and seeks not only to train physicians for practice within these disparate communities, but also to enhance training and expertise in population medicine and public health in the Medical Center, the University, and the state. The residency program focuses on investigative skills, both clinical and population-based, that assist in evaluating cases of worker environmentally-related illness and their underlying causes, while placing a premium on the development of preventive measures that control and reduce new disease. The UCHC Occupational Medicine residency has continued to grow and expand training opportunities in occupational medicine, as well as challenging residents to respond to new and current threats to worker and public health.
