Abstract
Radiation surveys were performed on 136 terminals of some 530 in use at three different sites. Researchers measured both ionizing and nonionizing radiation. In the industrial hygiene survey, samples of workroom air were analyzed to determine worker exposure to selected airborne chemical contaminants. The results of these tests demonstrated that the VDT operators included in this investigation were not exposed to hazardous levels of radiation or chemical agents.Keywords
