    Abstract/Overview

    Summary: In 1967 an experimen:.11 group occupational health service was set up in Dar t!S Salaam to provide direct service to industrial firms. T 3rget companies were visited by a doctor, smaller firn . in rotation by auxiliaries. After three years 65 cornn 1nies 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 "'lccupariooal health unit.
