Authors' recommendations:
At the request of the Minister of Social Affairs and Employment, the Dutch Expert Committee on Occupational Safety (DECOS), a committee of the Health Council of the Netherlands, derives so-called health-based calculated occupational cancer risk values (HBC-OCRVs) associated with excess mortality
levels of 4 per 1,000 and 4 per 100,000 as a result of working life exposure to substances. It concerns substances which are classified by the Health Council or the European Union in category 1A or 1B, and which are considered stochastic genotoxic carcinogens. For the estimation, the Committee uses the Guideline for the calculation of occupational cancer risk values of the Health Council. In this report the Committee presents such estimates for 5-nitroacenaphtene. 5-Nitroacenaphtene is used in the production of dyes, plastics, and pesticides.
