To estimate the current occupational cancer burden due to past exposures in Britain,
estimates of the number of exposed workers at different levels are required, as well as risk …

A sound knowledge base is required to target resources to reduce workplace exposure to
carcinogens. This project aimed to provide an objective estimate of the burden of cancer in …

Background: Prioritising control measures for occupationally related cancers should be
evidence based. We estimated the current burden of cancer in Britain attributable to past …

Although only a relatively small proportion of cancer is attributable to occupational exposure
to carcinogenic agents, the estimated number of deaths due to occupational cancer is high …

Objective: This paper reviews previous attempts to estimate the proportion of cancers
caused by occupational factors in Australia and overseas and calculates an estimate of the …

Introduction: This paper describes the available exposure information for carcinogens in
Great Britain and discusses some of the issues involved in using such data to inform an …

In recent years, it has been become increasingly popular to carry out estimation of the
burden of disease with the aim of identifying major risk factors contributing to important …

An approach using the attributable fraction (AF) has been developed to estimate the current
burden of occupational cancer in Britain. The AF combines the relative risk (RR) associated …
