Abstract

The need to improve the environment within Egypt has recently been recognized by the government. Environmental management and protection are at a juncture in Egypt where decisions and appropriate attitudes towards the environment can have significant implications for the future development of the country. Current policy reforms are impacting on industry in a way which is making them more accountable for their operations as well their costs [EP3, 1995] (1).
Undoubtedly, industry is one of the main sources affecting environmental quality. Concern for a clean working environment for industrial workers is based on the fact that improved air quality leads to high productivity and human welfare for workers. This means that the efforts to improve the working environment have positive impacts on workers, concerned companies, and the economy as a whole [Jackson et al., 1989] (2).
Occupational exposure of workers takes place in an extremely complex array of physical, chemical, and biological agents having impacts of an ergonomic, physiological and psychosocial nature. These impacts often threaten the safety and health of workers and reduce workers’ productivity [Watkins and Gutzwiller, 1999] (3).
Environmental pollution is one of the social problems which need awareness with the causative condition. Therefore, it is necessary to create volunteer social leaders to help in solving this problem. The industrial workers’ society is one of these communities [Mattbews, 1999] (4).
