This legislation mandated NIOSH to conduct a number of research and education programs separate from the standard setting and enforcement functions of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration OSHA in the Department of Labor An important area of NIOSH research deals with method for controlling controlling occupational occupational exposure to potential chemical and physical hazards to cafe levels The Engineering Control Technology ECTB of the Division of Physical Sciences and Engineering has been lead within NIOSH to study the engineering aspects of hazard control Branch given the Since 1976 ECTB has conducted a number of assessments of health hazard control technology on the basis of industry common industrial process or specific control techniques Examples of these completed studies include the foundry industry various chemical manufacturing or processing operations spray painting and the recirculation of exhaust air The objective of each of these studies has been to evaluate and document effective control techniques for potential health hazards in the industry interest and to create a more general awareness of the or process of need for or availability of an effective system of hazard control measures These studies involve surveys are conducted a number of phacoc to select plants or Initially a oorioc of walk processes with effective and through potentially transferable control concepts or techniques Next depth surveys are conducted to determine both the control parameters and the effectiveness of these controls The reports from these then used as a basis for preparing technical reports and depth surveys journal articles are on effective hazard control measures Ultimately the information from these research activities builds the data base of publicly available information on hazard control techniques for use by health professionals who are responsible for preventing occupational illness and injury Background Asbestos is found in motor vehicle brake materials Recognition of asbestos carcinogenic properties has currently resulted in substitution of less toxic fibers number for come brake materials of brakes This study is However concerned acbertor with the in chill in large control of asbestos exposures to workers who are required to repair motor vehicle brakes Dubrow and Wegman published a research and control priority assessment of occupational carcinogen1s Their objective was to identify occupations with potentially high cancer risk by combining the results of 12 major occupational disease surveillance studies and to make recommendations concerning priorities for occupational cancer research and control on the basis of the results of this analysis in conjunction with other available opidemiologic industrial hygiene toxicologic and employment data basis of the principles outlined in their paper some priorities for On the research Tue beh 16 16:01:116:301:13 21101 a , P.
