Study on the pollution of the work environment by benzene
» This study aims at:
Diagnosing the present state of conditions of benzene use

for a sample of the people that are exposed to it, and suggesting a technical, medical and legal prevention programme.
Lasted of realization: 2 years.

Analytical study on fatal industrial accidents recorded since 1995 due to electricity and falls from a height
» This study aims at:
Identifying risk factors
Suggesting elements for action at organisational, technical and regulatory level.
Lasted of realization: One year.

Study on heat constraint or discomfort in a manufacturing industry enterprise
This study aims at:
» Describing the physical features of the heat environment encountered
Suggesting an approach that reduces discomfort or constraint.
Lasted of realization: One year

Use of flying scaffolds
» This study aims at:
Identifying weaknesses in the design, installation and use of scaffolding used in Tunisia
Drafting a guide that flying scaffolding must respect
Lasted of realization: One year.

Mapping noise in the mechanical construction sector
» This study aims at:

Respiratory morbidity in poultry farms
» This study aims at:
Studying respiratory risk and nuisance in poultry rearing sheds
Estimating respiratory pathologies for people rearing poultry
Assessing occupational respiratory pathologies for people rearing poultry.
Lasted of the study: One year.

Study on occupational deafness in the metallic construction sector in the Sousse region
» This study aims at:
Making a diagnosis of the state of hearing due to exposure to noise in a metallic construction factory in the Sousse region. This study will enable us to assess the prevalence of occupational deafness in this enterprise by the Early Warning Indicator (IPA) calculation.

Lasted of realization: One year

Sero-epidemiological study on brucellosis in the agricultural environment
» This study aims at:
Carrying out a screening investigation in a part of Tunisia where they specialise in cattle-raising, based on a sero-epidemiological study on workers in contact with stock-rearing animals (cattle and goats)
Lasted of the study: One year.

Study on physical constraint for drivers by measuring heart rate
» This study aims at:
Assessing the physical load by the objective measuring of the heart rate on the basis of the results, suggesting solutions and preventive recommendations.
 Lasted of the study: One year

Assessing the risk of silicosis in mines in the north-west
» This study aims at:
Estimating the prevalence of pneumoconiosis attacks for exposed workers
Estimating the levels of exposure to the risk of silicosis in the work atmosphere.
Lasted of the study: One year.

Study of the cutaneous risk for hotel employees'
» This study aims at:
Identifying the various occupational risks to the skin for workers in the hotel sector
Assessing the risks run by various categories of workers
Assessing the individual and collective means of protection put into effect
Suggesting solutions to protect against this risk.
Lasted of the study: One year.
