| Additional information regarding sample selection. | Sampling. Two-tier sampling plan. Collection is carried out by voluntary occupational physicians (1,800 physicians in 2003 and 2,400 in 2009-2010) who randomly selected employees from among those who had been invited for the periodic medical check-up. The survey periods differ according to region in order to cover four seasons and to allow regional decentralized training. |
| Database objective | |
| Main objective |
The SUMER survey aims to:
- describe all types of exposure linked to work stations (physical constraints and atmospheres, organizational and relational constrains, biological agents or chemical products) to which employees are exposed to; - characterise these exposure types (duration and intensity); - describe the collective and personal protection established by businesses. |
| Inclusion criteria | The reference population consists of French employees covered by occupational medicine or prevention and by the general scheme, the agricultural scheme (MSA), as well as Air-France, SNCF, EDF GDF, The National Post Office and Public Hospital employees. Some civil servants working for the French State and regional authorities were included in 2009-2010. |
