dc.description.abstractSummary: 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
