April 1922 bulletin of the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, the second and enlarged edition of a guide by Louis I. Dublin and Philip Leiboff of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, first written for Metropolitan's medical examiners. It lists about 900 hazardous occupations alphabetically and then sets out each hazard group (temperature, compressed air, dampness, dust, light, infections, illumination, repeated motion and poisons) with its symptoms, the occupations exposed and preventive measures, ending with a section on skin irritants. Asbestos workers and asbestos spinners appear under hazard D 1, inorganic dust, among the trades exposed to dust-related lung disease.
