Welcome to the Western Occupational & Environmental Medical Association
The Western Occupational & Environmental Medical Association (WOEMA) is a regional component of the American College of Occupational and Environmental Medicine (ACOEM) and is dedicated to high-quality medical care and ethical principles governing the practice of occupational medicine.
Mission: The mission of the Western Occupational and Environmental Medical Association (WOEMA), and of the Western Occupational Health Conference (WOHC), is to equitably promote and protect the health, safety, and well-being of all individuals at work and in their environment through education, engagement, leadership and advocacy. WOEMA advocates for health equity through justice, diversity and inclusion.
WOEMA provides quality accredited education for members and non-members alike across a wide spectrum of topics related to Occupational and Environmental Medicine, both online and in person.
Engaging with the world through a JEDI lens demonstrates how we value people in general. It is not only about our members feeling respected, but also about our patients feeling understood and safe.
Each fall, WOEMA members come together for the Western Occupational Health Conference, or WOHC, offering accredited education, workplace site visits and outstanding networking and social opportunities.
