Refimprove date July 2007 Occupational crime is crime that is committed through opportunity created in the course of legal occupation. Theft s of company property, vandalism , the misuse of information and many other activities come under the rubric of occupational crime.The concept of occupational crime as one of the principal forms of white collar crime has been quite familiar and widely invoked since the publication of Clinard and Quinney s influential Criminal Behavior Systems A Typology. More recently, however, the term occupational crime has been applied to activities quite removed from the original meaning of white collar crime, and it has been used interchangeably with such terms as occupational deviance and workplace crime. In the interest of greater conceptual clarity within the field of white collar crime the argument is made here for restricting the term occupational crime to illegal and unethical activities committed for individual financial gain or to avoid financial loss in the context of a legitimate occupation. The term occupational deviance is better reserved for deviation from occupational norms e.g. drinking on the job sexual harassment , and the term workplace crime is better reserved for conventional forms of crime committed in the workplace e.g. rape assault . The conceptual conflation of fundamentally dissimilar activities hinders theoretical, empirical, and policy related progress in the field of white collar crime studies.

Occupational licensing is the requirement to hold a license issued by a regulatory body or professional organisation, before practising a trade, profession or other occupation. Such requirements are commonly defended as a form of consumer protection against the risk of loss from unqualified or incompetent service providers. Economists including Milton Friedman have criticised occupational licensing as a restriction on competition . Some left wing critics agree, arguing that it serves as a way for members of certain trades to use state power to maintain their class power by restricting entry to the trade and making it difficult, though not impossible, for the poor to enter the professions. ref Magali Larson, The Rise of Professionalism A Sociological Analysis Univ of California Press, 1979 . ref Occupational research receives relatively sparse treatment in Labor Economics textbooks compared to other market regulations such as the minimum wage or labor unions. One possible explanation, advocated by libertarian Chicago School economists, is that labor economists favor government regulation. Given the amount of evidence pointing to the inefficiency of occupational licensing, labor economists may choose to avoid its treatment from sympathy for government regulation. ref Stephenson, E.

Occupational psychosis is the concept that one s occupation or career makes that person so biased that they could be described as psychosis psychotic . Especially common in tight occupational circles, individuals can normalize ideas or behaviours that seem absurd or irrational to the external public. The term was created by John Dewey . The most accessible introduction to this concept is Chapter III of Kenneth Burke s Permanence and Change Hermes Publications Los Altos, CA, 1954 . Burke is careful to say, Incidentally, it might be well to recall that Professor Dewey does not use the word psychosis in the psychiatric sense it applies simply to a pronounced character original emphasis of the mind. pg. 49. In fact, Robert K. Merton s notion of occupational psychosis is also important The transition to a study of the negative aspects of bureaucracy is afforded by the application of Veblen s concept of trained incapacity, Dewey s notion of occupational psychosis or Warnotte s view of D formation professionnelle professional deformation . Trained incapacity refers to that state of affairs in which one s abilities function as inadequacies or blind spots. Actions based upon training and skills which have been successfully applied in the past may result in inappropriate responses under changed conditions. An inadequate flexibility in the application of skills will, in a changing milieu, result in more or less serious maladjustments. 8 Thus, to adopt a barnyard illustration used in this connection by Burke, chickens may be readily conditioned to interpret the sound of a bell as a signal ....
