ASSESSMENT OF WORK-RELATED CARCINOGENIC HAZARD, CAUSED BY NATURAL ULTRAVIOLET RADIATION

SI «Institute for Occupational Health of NAMS of Ukraine», Kyiv

Full article (PDF), UKR

The unsolved key scientific problems have been defined on the assessment and decrease of levels of work-related carcinogenic hazard, caused by natural (solar) ultra-violet radiation (UV). The perspective directions have been outlined on prevention of work-related skin and eyes tumors, caused by the excess exposure of workers to UV.

Key words: carcinogenic hazard, solar ultraviolet radiation, workers, prevention
