[Communication of chemical and carcinogen risk at refinery maintenance companies].
This short paper reports a communication experience about chemical/carcinogen risk aimed to characterize and to document different occasions and several ways of exposure of the workers employed in maintenance companies in a petrochemical factory. We utilized different source of information: from risk assessment document (VR) of the petrochemical plant and from job sheets of the companies on contracts of maintenance. Working this way it has been possible to create a database which includes information about chemical agents, length and the way of exposure for every worker. This database allows to improve the level of knowledge of the Occupational Health Doctors, Professionals and of the workers, moreover it is useful to take note of quality and way of exposure in the VR document.
