Southern Africa Labour and Development Research Unit (Saldru) Working Paper No. 71, by Janine Aron and Jonny Myers, Cape Town, October 1987. It updates the 1980 Saldru paper on asbestos disease in South Africa. Section A reviews the health evidence, arguing that no exposure level is safe and that asbestos use should be prohibited. It also covers foreign regulation, mine and factory exposure, unionisation, and what it calls racially discriminatory compensation. Section B covers mine ownership, including what it calls Gencor's control of the industry, production, sales, exports and outlook.
