The trend in the chemical industry today, relating to environmental health and product
safety is to put increased emphasis on investigating the chemicals being handled and
the exposure of people to these chemicals. The Ou Pont Company has always been a leader in trese activities, utilizing one of the finest orgemzations of its type the Haskell Laboratory for Toxicology and Industrial Medicines. ~0n the Champers works
we have also been active in this respect, with a special Industrial Hygiene Section
of the Medical Division assigned to cooperate with the Operating Areas in investigating
potential hazardous situations. With increased effort on this, you will notice mere
activity, including air sampling, comprehensive ventilation checks; you may even oe
assigned to wear a personal continuous air sampler similar to those used previously
for various investigations on the Plant.
