German term

berufsbedingt

German to English Medical Medical (general)
I know it's possible just to translate this as "occupational" but I'm wondering if I can be more specific. "Occupation related" gets 1 shaky hit on google. Any ideas how to best resolve this one.

Um wirksame Massnahmen zur Verhinderung *berufsbedingter* Hautkrankheiten ergreifen zu koennen, sind Kenntnisse ueber deren Verbreitung sowie ueber moegliche endogene und exogene Risikofaktoren notwendig.

In order to be able to take effective measures for the prevention of occupation/al *bedingt* skin diseases, information is necessary with regard to their dissemination as well as possible endogenic and exogenous risk factors.
Proposed translations (English)

occupational

IMO the standard term - don't know why you don't like it.

But I agree with Cilian that \"occupational\" is perfectly alright here.
