Abstract
To evaluate the presence of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) among US occupational and environmental medicine (OEM) residency program websites. In January to February 2022, two independent reviewers evaluated the websites of all 24 US accredited OEM residency programs and documented the presence of 10 predetermined DEI metrics and resident/faculty photographs and biographies. Program websites included a median of 1 (0-3) DEI element with 46% of websites containing none of the DEI metrics. Faculty photographs and biographies were included in 83% and 75% of websites, respectively. Resident photographs and biographies were included in 50% and 25% of websites, respectively. Many OEM residency program websites lack DEI presence. Programs should consider presenting information relevant to DEI on their websites to help attract more diverse applicant pools.
