Worker exposures to potentially hazardous chemical and physical agents were determined at SES, Incorporated (SIC-3674) in Newark, Delaware, on January 9, 1979. The survey was part of a NIOSH study of the photovoltaic solar energy industry. About 25 workers were assigned to the panel production operations. Medical examinations were given to new employees and periodic medical tests were given to personnel in certain jobs. No significant industrial hygiene problems were observed, although many operations could not be adequately characterized due to the nature of the process or because the process was not in operation at the time of the survey. The author recommends improvement in the local ventilation systems.
