Abstract:
:Workplace description is an operation indispensable for the identification of professional risks and, in fulfillment of that objective, can best be accomplished by listing the constituent tasks associated with each job. This article presents a software in Visual-Basic to be run on a portable micro-computer, which facilitates this process according to these aims. The occupational physician and safety engineer can make good use of the exposure database resulting from the application of this program. Job histories are built automatically, while workers with similar exposures are grouped together and job-exposure matrices are elaborated. This information, computerized, sorted and re-assembled, can then be used effectively for studies in the field of occupational epidemiology.
