Haz-Map
(National Library of Medicine)
Haz-Map is an occupational toxicology database designed for health and safety professionals and for consumers seeking information about the health effects of exposure to chemicals at work. Haz-Map links jobs and hazardous tasks with occupational diseases and their symptoms. Haz-Map's chemicals and biological agents are related to industrial processes and other activities such as hobbies. Its occupational diseases and their symptoms are associated with hazardous job tasks. Haz-Map's link with jobs and hazardous tasks helps to indicate the potential for exposure to these agents. Information from textbooks, journal articles, and electronic databases such as NLM's HSDB was classified and summarized to create the database.
