A dynamic population-based model for the development of work related respiratory health effects amongst bakery workers
Occupational and Environmental Medicine, 09/21/09
Warren N et al. – Whilst the model provides a valuable population level representation of the mechanisms contributing to respiratory diseases in bakers, it was primarily developed for use in quantitative Health Impact Assessment. Future research will use the model to evaluate a range of workplace interventions, including achievable reductions in exposure and health surveillance. The general methodology is applicable to other diseases such as Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), Silicosis and Musculoskeletal Disorders and could be particularly valuable for forecasting changes in long latency diseases.
