title: An ergonomic approach for the evaluation of health risk in drug research and production.
abstract: Scientists and workers engaged in the study and production of drugs may be exposed to harmful events not yet adequately evaluated. An ergonomic approach to this problem with a view to defining projects of primary prevention, based on the respect for organizational congruences and on the knowledge of risk sources and dynamics, can represent an important measure of security and also a way to promote scientific advancement.
