[Reduction of health risk factors in workers exposed to carbon disulfide].
The results of all the efforts made so far towards the reduction of CS2 concentrations at the workplaces of viscose rayon industry indicate that achievement of safe standards is little probable in the nearest future. Likewise, the preventive activities aimed at the reduction of the daily working time from 8 to 6 hours and referring workers to work with no exposure for several months are hardly effective. Basing on the results of clinical and epidemiological studies of the CS2 exposed population and relevant control groups the authors indicate their own solutions of decreasing the health risk. Pursuant to this suggestion the total time of work in exposure should not exceed 15 years and would be interrupted by so called periods of "health regeneration", consisting in the transfer to the production with no CS2 exposure for one year. This rotational system would apply to all those employed for over five years under CS2 concentrations exceeding the hygienic standards.
