Status of occupational health in Nigeria
This article presents at length an overview on the status of occupational health in Nigeria. The small industrial base and high unemployment rate, antiquated production processes and protective equipment, lack of training facilities and statutory regulations or standards for occupational exposure make the status of occupational health in this country predictably low. The trade union organisations are of little help to industrial workers. The Factory Inspectorate statutorily charged with workplace monitoring has fewer than 30 inspectors and practically no logistic support. The role of the International Labour Office in occupational health promotion for working populations in Nigeria is considered.

Noise labelling and legislation
Noise labelling requires that manufacturers and retailers of certain categories of equipment must inform potential customers of the noise emitted by the equipment during a prescribed test. Labelling also serves health authorities, employers, industrial hygienists and others through a requirement that manufacturers must supply particular noise information prior to point of sale. Considerable work on international standardisation has already been carried out as well as independent work in Australia and some European countries. In order to ensure that noise labelling can function effectively, there must be a clearly defined noise descriptor linked to a clearly defined measuring method, and a methodology for the verification of labelled values. There must be continuing public education on labelling and consumer rights, and where possible, legislation should favour manufacturers of low-noise products.

Mortality among United States coast guard marine inspectors
Work history records and fitness reports were obtained for 1767 marine inspectors of the U.S. Coast Guard between 1942 and 1970 and for a comparison group of 1,914 officers who had never been marine inspectors. Marine inspectors and noninspectors had a deficit in overall mortality compared to that expected from the general U.S. population. Deficits occurred for most major causes of death, including infectious and parasitic diseases, diseases of the digestive and urinary systems, and accidents. Marine inspectors had excesses of cirrhosis of the liver and motor vehicle accidents and cancers of the lymphatic and hematopoietic system, whereas noninspectors had deficits for these causes of death. The SMRs rose with increasing probabiity of exposure to chemicals for motor vehicle accidents, cirrhosis of the liver, liver cancer, and leukaemia, which suggests that contact with chemicals during inspection of merchant vessels may be involved in the development of these diseases among marine inspectors.

Trends in occupational accidents and diseases in Yugoslavia in 1988
Gibanje poškodb pri delu in poklicnih bolezni v SFRJ v letu 1988 [en esloveno]
The numbers of accidents (233,689) and fatalities (433) recorded in Yugoslavia in 1988 were lower than in 1987 (273,449 and 524, respectively), whereas the number of cases of work-related disease increased from 3388 in 1987 to 5158 in 1988. Since 1984, the trend in all 3 statistics has been downward. In 1988, 5,289,833 workdays were lost; the figure for 1987 was 6,099,044. Workers' organisations invested more in occupational safety than in previous years, and the qualifications of those workers responsible for workplace safety were improved. These figures are broken down by republic and autonomous province for 1987 and 1988. The activities of inspectors and their findings are also presented.

CIS 89-2062 Wheeled tractors for agriculture and forestry - Protective structures - Dynamic test method and acceptance conditions
Tracteurs agricoles et forestiers à roues - Structure de protection - Méthode d'essais dynamiques et conditions d'acceptation [en francés]
