In March 1985, two cases of silicosis in former employees of a sanitary-ware pottery (i.e., a manufacturer of china plumbing fixtures) were identified from death certificates by the New Jersey State Department of Health (NJSDH). A site visit to the pottery in January 1987 revealed potential overexposure of employees to crystalline silica throughout the plant. This report summarizes the investigation of employee exposure to silica.
1985年3月,新泽西州卫生部(NJSDH)从死亡证明中确认了两例卫生洁具陶瓷厂(即中国卫生洁具制造商)前员工的矽肺病病例。1987年1月对该陶瓷厂进行的实地考察发现,整个工厂的员工都有可能过度接触结晶二氧化硅。本报告总结了对员工接触二氧化硅情况的调查。
