American Indian Uranium Millworkers:

A case study of 81 American Indian uranium millworkers who worked during the 1950s and 1960s was conducted to determine the perceived effects of occupational exposure from uranium mill processing. Many respondents reported health problems felt to be associated with the millwork. The most frequently identified physical problems were respiratory problems and rashes. Anxiety and depression were the most often identified emotional problems. Policy implications related to these findings are discussed.
