Abstract

Introduction: Artificial stone (AS) is widely recognised as a signif- icant source of occupational respirable crystalline silica (RCS) exposure. However, stonemasons may also be exposed to noise, vibration and chemicals that could have additive or synergistic effects in combination with RCS. The aim of this project was to evaluate stonemason exposure to volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
