Work-Related Asthma: Findings from Statewide Tracking

Details

• Corporate Authors:
  California. Department of Public Health
• Description:
  The Work-related Asthma Prevention Program (WRAPP) within the Occupational Health Branch tracks work-related asthma (WRA) throughout California. To track WRA we find and count cases of workers who have asthma because of their jobs. Then we learn more about those jobs to find ways to make the workplace safer. This fact sheet shares some of what we learned during the past 23 years. [Description provided by NIOSH]
