Occupational Cancer Research Program
1. Identify occupational cancer risk factors
2. Identify carcinogens in the workplace
JOB‐EXPOSURE MATRIX(JEM)
Associates chemical and physical exposures to job‐titles in a given industry.
Enables to pool in the analyses, all subjects with the same exposure.

HIERARCHICAL CODING SYSTEM
• Chemicals coded according to structures and properties
• Substances grouped by chemical class and common constituents
• Allows analysis of individual, classes and broad groups of agents
• Increases statistical power by grouping chemicals with similar structural features
• Differentiates between compounds of similar structure, but different carcinogenic potential
