Pilot study on benzene exposure risks in healthcare workers: a combined socio-demographic and computational toxicology approach
These preliminary findings highlight the occupational hazards benzene poses to healthcare workers and suggest the need for improved workplace safety and biomonitoring. The study briefly discusses gender and socio-labor factors, emphasizing institutional responsibilities to ensure safe working conditions. Larger-scale studies are warranted to validate these pilot observations.
