The CD-ROM is read with the same Pundit software as on the previous NIOSH CD-ROM. This could have benefited from proofreading. The first HHE report that I read, 80-004-1436, was for an investigation at a Ford Motor Co. assembly plant in Sterling Heights, MI. The narrative stated that workers had reported to NIOSH that there were 102,824 deaths from cancer at this plant. This typo was probably introduced by the OCR software scanning the original hard copy report. Nevertheless this CD-ROM is a useful reference tool if you want to look at specific plants or industries.
