mistake vs. fault

[Morteza]

Hi everybody,
I wonder which one is correct:
occupational faults or mistakes
Also,was "occupational" used correctly,or we should use "professional" instead?
Many thanks,
Morteza

Morteza, I am familiar with the term, Occupational hazards. Not sure if this was what you were looking for.

Hi Morteza,

I wouldn't use either 'occupational fault or occupational mistake'. I agree with Bill that the expression 'occupational hazard' is most common suggesting that this is a risk that's associated with a particular occupation. The only way it seems that you can incorporate 'mistake' into this idea would be to say: This is a common mistake made by people in that occupation' or something like that.
