An epidemiologic investigation of a 1964 cohort of 478 photographic processors in 9 Eastman Kodak Color Print and Processing (CP&P) laboratories in the continental USA was undertaken. Analysis of pre-1965 environmental data indicated that chemical exposures were within the standards applicable at the time. The results showed no significant excess mortality, sickness-absence or cancer incidence. The processing cohort's mortality experience after 16 yr of follow-up compared favorably with that of 2 industrial control populations. The present study represents (to the authors' knowledge) the first published occupational epidemiology investigation that specifically examines the health of workers engaged in large-scale commercial photofinishing operations.
