Table 3 gives for each cancer, numbers of deaths (registrations for NMSC) within industry sectors or jobs for which there were at least 50 estimated attributable cancers; the exposures concerned are listed, with those contributing most (at least 10 cancers in men plus women) being shown in bold.
*Totals are for lung, bladder, leukaemia, mesothelioma and nasal cancers plus attributable registrations for NMSC. 0 = <0.5; blank cell = cancer not represented.
AA, aromatic amine (bladder); Ar, arsenic (lung); Asb, asbestos (lung, mesothelioma); Be, beryllium (lung); Bz, benzene (leukaemia); Ca, cadmium (lung); Ch, chromium IV (lung, sinonasal); Co, cobalt (lung); D, dioxins (lung); DEE, diesel engine exhaust (lung, bladder); EO, ethylene oxide (leukaemia); ETS, environmental tobacco smoke (lung); F, female; Fo, formaldehyde (sinonasal, leukaemia); M, male; MWF, metal working fluids (bladder, NMSC, sinonasal); N, nickel (lung, sinonasal); NAP, non-arsenical pesticide (leukaemia); NMSC, non-melanoma skin cancer; PAH, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (lung, bladder); PAHc, coal tar and pitch (NMSC); Pb, lead (lung); R, radon (lung); Si, silica (lung); Sr, solar radiation (NMSC); W, wood dust (Sinonasal); 1–3B 1–3 butadiene (leukaemia).
