During a cross sectional epidemiologic study the cholesterol and triglyceride plasmatic levels were measured in 207 workers employed in an oil refinery. Our results show high levels both for cholesterol and triglyceride. Emphasis has been laid on the serious dietary and hygienic problems for these workers. The finding of hyperlipidemia as well as obesity and over-weight do not seem to be related to exposure to any occupational chemical hazard.
