| Abstract |
This report describes the epidemiological information system (SI-EPI), developed by Electricité de France-Gaz de France (EDF-GDF). This system covers data on approximately 150,000 workers involved in the production, transmission and distribution of energy. The databases constituting SI-EPI deal with: population aspects, health aspects, occupational exposure and working conditions. The latter includes information on exposure to 30 potentially carcinogenic agents, as well as surveillance aspects. Beside these, the cohort database, called GAZEL, concerns a sample of more than 20,000 volunteer workers, followed since 1989. From the beginning of the SI-EPI project in 1978, one or more of its databases have provided data for many epidemiological studies in various contexts, e.g.: mortality and morbidity studies. |
