From: Breast cancer-related occupational exposures facing immigrant women
occupations that employ the greatest percentage of immigrants (as a percentage of the total female workers). Purple boxes indicate probable chemical exposures, and blue boxes indicate possible chemical exposures. Numbers across the top axes indicate raw exposure scores for each occupation, rounded to the nearest tenth. Managerial occupations, interpreters, gambling workers, tailors, life scientists, physical scientists, butchers, computer programmers, and food processing workers were not classified in the WORC data.
