The Health of Welders in Naval Dockyards

Abstract
Welders employed in Her Majesty's Dockyards before the late 1960s are likely to have been exposed to asbestos dust at work. Several studies have been made to assess the risk of their developing asbestos-related pulmonary parenchyma! fibrosis, pleural fibrosis and mesothelioma. Potential exposures and their possible effects are described.
