Excellent- More about Emerging Chemical Risks in the Work Environment
The production and use of nanomaterials, carcinogenic, mutagenic, reprotoxic substances (CMR), and endocrine disruptors have increased globally, exposing workers to hazardous substances. This book provides up-to-date knowledge on emerging risks related to these substances and offers tools for occupational risk assessment and protection. It raises awareness about the reduction of cancer, reproductive system diseases, abnormal child development, hormonal system disorders, obesity, and diabetes caused by chemical agents.

The production and use of nanomaterials, as well as carcinogenic, mutagenic, reprotoxic substances (CMR) and endocrine disruptors, have seen a systematic increase worldwide. This surge in production has exposed workers across various sectors of the global economy to hazardous substances. This comprehensive book aims to provide readers with up-to-date and comprehensive knowledge on emerging risks associated with nanomaterials, endocrine disruptors, reprotoxic, carcinogenic, and mutagenic substances. It will serve as a valuable resource for occupational risk assessment of chemical substances for which safety levels of exposure are yet to be established. Moreover, it will offer guidance on methods and measurements to protect human health and reduce chemical risks in workplaces.
The book's primary objective is to raise awareness among employers, employees, and safety experts about the emerging risks associated with chemical agents, ultimately leading to a reduction in cancer, reproductive system diseases, abnormal child development, hormonal system disorders, abnormal metabolism, obesity, and diabetes. It features comprehensive information on emerging and newly identified chemical hazards, delivering the latest data on methods and tools for identification, assessing, and reducing health risks. Practical occupational safety advice and recommendations are provided, drawing from real-life examples of measurements conducted in workplaces.
Due to the broad scope of its considerations, the monograph can be addressed to a wide audience, including health and safety services, employers, individuals designing new technologies, and those interested in this field. It serves as an essential compendium of knowledge, valuable for professionals, researchers, and policymakers alike. The book's timely publication makes it a valuable and up-to-date study, contributing to the ongoing efforts to mitigate the risks associated with chemical exposure and promote workplace safety.
