In developing countries such as
Pakistan, creating awareness among workers about
workplace chemicals and other related hazards should
also be given priority. There should be thorough hazard
assessments at a large scale to review occupational
safety conditions at the initial stage, and practical
measures should be taken to minimize them in future.
This study was planned to evaluate the effects of
continuous exposure to solvents, chemical contaminants,
and other confounding factors that may cause
functional changes in blood parameters. It may be
helpful in future for suggesting the most significant
priorities in the light of research outcomes, to minimize
workplace- and occupation-related health risks, and to
ensure safety to workers’ health.
