Abstract
A key feature of this project is the estimation of broad industry
sectors for each carcinogen, occupational circumstance and
cancer site. This information is critical to prioritise interventions
that aim to reduce workplace-related cancer. This paper presents
results for the current burden of occupational cancer by industry
sector on the basis of attributable cancer registrations for 2004,
for all industries for which there are at least 10 attributable
registrations
