During wastewater treatment, bioaerosols are generated and, can either remain in suspension for several hours or settle on surfaces and workers may be exposed. The presence of pathogens in the air could contribute to an increased frequency of gastrointestinal or respiratory illness amongst workers. Due to harsh winter conditions in Eastern Canada,...
Le traitement des eaux usées comporte plusieurs étapes susceptibles de générer des
bioaérosols auxquels des travailleurs peuvent être exposés. Bien que la littérature à ce sujet soit relativement abondante, les connaissances relatives au risque, à l’exposition et à la fréquence de certaines maladies chez cette population demeurent mal documentées....

... Studies have suggested that there was a strong connection between 'sewage worker's syndrome' and bioaerosol emissions (Cyprowski and Krajewski, 2003;Patentalakis et al., 2008). Nonetheless, further investigation will enhance the evidence base to strengthen the association between casual agents of sewage worker's exposure and ill health outcomes (Van Hooste et al., 2010;Mbareche et al., 2022). Consequently, concurrent with a growing number of WWTPs, there have been increasing concerns over public and environmental health risks associated with bioaerosol emissions from WWTPs, and the risk assessment of bioaerosols from WWTPs became significant to regulations of workplace safety and community public health (Peccia et al., 2008). ...
