COMMENTARY     

Ian Graham
Staff Editor
12th April 2005 		Data from California, Massachusetts, Michigan and New Jersey indicates that health care workers face a high risk of developing occupational asthma, said the American Journal of Industrial Medicine in its March 2005 edition.

Over five years, health care workers in those four states accounted for 16 percent of confirmed cases of work-related asthma but only eight percent of the total workforce. Health care was the first or second most frequently reported industry in work-related asthma cases from 1993 to 1997.

The most common exposures among health care workers with work-related asthma were to latex and disinfectants that can cause asthma. Other things they were exposed to can worsen asthma, including cleaning products, renovation materials, mold and poor indoor air quality.
