Dust and Occupational Asthma

LOHP
Multilingual Resource Guide
This
is an extensive collection of links to worker health and safety
training materials (such as factsheets, curricula, and checklists)
that are available from many sources online in languages other
than English. It was prepared
by LOHP and the California Commission on Health and Safety and
Workers' Compensation.
The
Guide was updated in late 2005. It
is available here in HTML, PDF, and Microsoft Word versions.
You
may view the HTML version to start your search or to print specific
sections of the Guide. You may also print or view the full text
of the Guide in PDF or Microsoft Word.
Please note that the HTML version is easier to navigate.
These materials are arranged in two ways to assist you in quickly
finding appropriate training aids: by topic and by language.
At
the end of the Guide, you'll find a listing of web sites with additional
links to health and safety information and resources in other languages.
The Guide
is designed to complement the statewide Worker Occupational Health
and Safety Training and Education Program (WOSHTEP).
