Effective coordination, collaboration, communication, and partnering are needed to close the gaps for occupational PFAS exposure
Moore SM , Brown C , Kiederer M , Calkins MM , Burgess JL , D'Alessandro M , Davis R , Fenton SE , Morrison P , Reh CM . Am J Ind Med 2022 66 (5) 351-352 Over the past few decades, there has been a growing concern over the health effects associated with per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) exposure especially among worker populations. High levels of PFAS exposure have been linked to various health outcomes including cancer and increased cholesterol levels.1 Existing research on occupational PFAS exposure is limited to only a few industries. Given this, the focus of the American Journal of Industrial Medicine's special issue on occupational PFAS exposures is to review current knowledge of occupational exposures to PFAS; identify newer, emerging, or unstudied sources of exposure; assess gaps in present understanding of their occupational use and hazards; and outline the needs for future research and worker protection. This special issue will help advance the scientific community's understanding of PFAS and aid current and future research projects. However, there are additional critical drivers to the success of reducing occupational exposures to PFAS which need to be addressed. These critical drivers are effective coordination, collaboration, communication, and partnerships. |
