A manual issued by the International Labour Office in Geneva in 1965, built on ILO meetings of experts held in 1952 and 1955. Seventeen chapters cover dust diseases, national dust standards, water supply, ventilation, filtration, drilling, blasting, coal getting, transport, surface plants, tunnelling, respirators, dust sampling and training. It calls asbestos one of the most dangerous minerals whose dust causes pneumoconiosis (asbestosis). Its tables of permissible dust levels, from Quebec and from the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists, give 10 million particles per cubic foot for asbestos.
