Mortality pet dist workers coverThis publication provides the results of a lengthy study into available mortality and cancer registration data to determine whether any part of the mortality and morbidity experience of the cohort might be related to occupational exposures.

This third edition details an analysis of the mortality and cancer morbidity experienced by a cohort of 16 467 petroleum distribution workers for the period 1951-2011.
