Resumen |
This study aimed to evaluate the dust concentration conditions in underground coal mines in Turkey, together with the occupational health risks associated with exposures to respirable dust. Data were obtained from the dust measurement studies conducted in various underground coal mines between 1978 and 2006. In the statistical analyses, the comparison of dustiness between mines and their mining regions were made by using the average dust concentration values. In addition, the numbers of workers with doubtful pneumoconiosis diagnosis were evaluated according to their occupational job category. Findings are discussed. |
