Work-related asthma and cancer are largely preventable conditions, but we need to understand the risks faced by workers in order to direct prevention policy and practice. We will survey 5000 Australian workers to estimate the exposure to asthma- and cancer-causing agents in the workplace. This partnership between university researchers and government and non-government organisations will provide a sound basis for determining how to decrease the number of these occupational diseases.

与工作有关的哮喘和癌症在很大程度上是可以预防的，但我们需要了解工人面临的风险，以便指导预防政策和实践。我们将对5000名澳大利亚工人进行调查，以估计他们在工作场所暴露于哮喘和致癌物质的情况。大学研究人员与政府和非政府组织之间的这种伙伴关系将为确定如何减少这些职业病的数量提供坚实的基础。
