摘要：SUMMARY: Cancers are a collective term for over a hundred diseases occurring due to changes in the DNA caused by a carcinogenic agent, which is any compound or substance that may cause cancer. Pursuant to the Occupational Diseases Act, in the Republic of Croatia we recognise any form of cancer as occupation-related cancer if a worker is exposed to carcinogenic substances. Following up on the European Directive 67/548/EEC, currently being developed in the Republic of Croatia, under the leadership of the Ministry of the Economy, Labour and Entrepreneurship, is a set of Regulations on the Safety of Workers Exposed to Carcinogenic and/or Mutagenic Substances. This document comprehensively elaborates the role of the employer, employees, labour inspection bodies, occupational safety services and occupational medicine in the protection of workers exposed to harmful substances. The most common occupation-related cancers are listed according to the International Agency for Cancer Research, with an attached list of the branches of industry and professions causing cancer in a large number of employees.
