The results are as follows;

1) 33.8% of employees were not aware of the fact that their factories have been supported by Government, and 69.1% of employees did not know who was the monitor of that program. Only 14.7% of employees and 35.5% of employers agreed that the supported program reflected their opinions well.

2) 45.1% of employees participated in health education classes more than once. But only 15.6% of them considered the classes as very helpful. 21.1% of employ- ~mrs were much aware of health education schedule, and 44,2% reported that it was helpful for the prevention of occupational diseases.

3) 68.8% of employers were aware of the possibility of occupational diseases that could occur in their factories. And 36.5% of employers reported that some criteria were used for job reallocation to their employees. But only y.7% of employees were assigned new job based on the result of health status examination.
