Tools

We have developed additional tools to help users explore the data used for our estimates and indicators.

eWORK is a set of tools developed by our occupational exposures team that allow users to conduct custom queries of the CAREX results database. Two versions of eWORK are available: eWORK Online and eWORK Excel.

eWORK Online is for users who prefer quick, accessible, yet high quality statistics on occupational exposures to various carcinogens.

eWORK Excel is a Microsoft Excel-based tool capable of handling complex filters and queries. It is available for download through eWORK Online.

CAREX Canada’s package summaries are a useful guide for those looking to better understand – and reduce or eliminate – the known or suspected carcinogens that Canadians are exposed to in workplace and community environments.

Assembling various CAREX Canada data, tools and resources, these summaries “package” information in various ways; so far we’ve developed summaries by occupation, industry, province, route of exposure, population, cancer site, and exposure source.

The CAREX Canada team offers two regular newsletters: the biannual e-Bulletin summarizing information on upcoming webinars, new publications, and updates to estimates and tools; and the monthly Carcinogens in the News, a digest of media articles, government reports, and academic literature related to the carcinogens we’ve classified as important for surveillance in Canada.
