dc.description.abstract | Summary: In 1967 an experimental group occupational
health service was set up in Dar es Salaam to provide
direct service to industrial firms. Target companies
were visited by a doctor, smaller firms. in rotation by
auxiliaries. After three years 65 companies had joined
with over 15,000 employees, and workers we'e attending
the group dispensaries at a rate of over 250,000 visits a
year. Such an approach through direct service to the
working community appears to be more appropriate to a
developing country than a purely advisory central occupational health unit. | en_US |
