| Popis: | The author presents a brief review of some of the health and safety topics he believes merit priority attention by the welding industry. These comprise avoiding wear, tear and health wastage; poor standardisation of risk assessment of fume exposure; manganese, manganism, Idiopathic Parkinson’s Disease and welding; susceptibility to pneumonia; eye malignancy; excess risk of lung cancer in welders; and preventing a new epidemic of old occupational diseases in industrialising countries. |
