  • Title: Legal treatment of the asthmatic worker: a major problem for the nineties.
    Author: Richman SI.
    Journal: J Occup Med; 1990 Oct; 32(10):1027-31. PubMed ID: 2148183.
    Abstract:
    Workers with pre-existing asthma that has become "aggravated" by stimuli in the workplace can be "disabled" in a legal sense. Should workers compensation be extended to provide disability benefits when the aggravating stimuli are ubiquitous, when the employment relationship was brief, when separation from the offending stimuli ends symptoms, or when hyperreactivity can be medically managed?
