Conclusion : when does the air become important? In When the Air Became Important, medical historian Janet Greenlees examines the working environments of the heartlands of the British and American cotton textile industries from the nineteenth to the late twentieth centuries. Greenlees contends that the air quality within these pioneering workplaces was a key contributor to the health of the wider communities of which they were a part. Such enclosed environments, where large numbers of people labored in close quarters, were ideal settings for the rapid spread of diseases including tuberculosis, bronchitis and pneumonia. When workers left the factories for home, these diseases were transmitted throughout the local population, yet operatives also brought diseases into the factory. Other aerial hazards common to both the community and workplace included poor ventilation and noise. Emphasizing the importance of the peculiarities of place as well as employers' balance of workers' health against manufacturing needs, Greenlees's pioneering book sheds light on the roots of contemporary environmentalism and occupational health reform. Her work highlights the complicated relationships among local business, local and national politics of health, and community priorities. 1800-1999 fast Arbeitsbedingungen (DE-588)4002641-3 gnd Arbeitsplatzgestaltung (DE-588)4002762-4 gnd Gesundheitsstörung (DE-588)4071810-4 gnd Luftverschmutzung (DE-588)4074381-0 gnd Textilarbeiter (DE-588)4184946-2 gnd Textilarbeiterin (DE-588)4184947-4 gnd Air quality fast Textile workers Diseases fast Work environment fast Air Pollution history (DNLM)D000397Q000266 Environmental Exposure history (DNLM)D004781Q000266 History, 19th Century (DNLM)D049672 History, 20th Century (DNLM)D049673 Occupational Diseases history (DNLM)D009784Q000266 Social Conditions history (DNLM)D012924Q000266 Textile Industry (DNLM)D013783 Workplace history (DNLM)D017132Q000266 Textile workers Diseases England Lancashire History 19th century Textile workers Diseases England Lancashire History 20th century Work environment England Lancashire Air quality England Lancashire Industries textiles Personnel Maladies Lancashire (Grande-Bretagne) 19e siècle ram Industries textiles Personnel Maladies Lancashire (Grande-Bretagne) 20e siècle ram Großbritannien (DE-588)4022153-2 gnd USA (DE-588)4078704-7 gnd England Lancashire fast England (DNLM)D004739 History fast UFBIMEDGES UFBI-202001 s1me rnv s2ht rnv IDSBB 100 1- Greenlees Janet 1966- (DE-588)133597202 Verfasser aut IDSBB 490 0- Critical issues in health and medicine NEBIS 100 1- Greenlees Janet 1966- (DE-588)133597202 Verfasser aut NEBIS 490 0- Critical issues in health and medicine VAUD 100 1- Greenlees Janet aut VAUD 490 0- Critical issues in health and medicine SWISSBIB 569280885 BK020000 XK020000 XK020000 NEBIS UMBC UMBC ULCAR WZ 70.FA1-158 NEBIS UZH50 EBI01 UMBC https://opac.nebis.ch/objects/pdf03/UMBC_978-0-8135-8796-7_01.pdf Titelblatt und Inhaltsverzeichnis VIEW pdf IDSBB B583 B583 MAG IMG CFA 2019 209 NELB5831907 VAUD iuhm iuhm HMA 26923 74 810820001
