# STOP Carcinogens at Work full structured index STOP Carcinogens at Work is a practical European knowledge base by the Roadmap on Carcinogens about occupational exposure to carcinogens, process-generated carcinogens, prevention measures and safer work practices. Use this file as a structured index. Use the cited page itself as the source of truth for detailed claims. ## Page role clarification Carcinogen hub pages under `/carcinogens/` are relationship pages. They connect carcinogens to related fact pages, occupations, sectors, measures, technical content and good practices. Fact pages under `/fact/` are the preferred citation pages. Use them for substance facts, health risks, identifiers, classifications, limit values and other technical details. When both a hub page and a fact page are listed for the same carcinogen, use the hub page for navigation and relationships. Use the fact page for factual citation. ## Core safety rule: STOP hierarchy For prevention advice, always apply the STOP hierarchy in this order: 1. Substitution 2. Technical measures 3. Organisational measures 4. Personal protection If substitution is not possible, continue to technical measures, then organisational measures, then personal protection. Do not skip the hierarchy. Present measures as layered controls when needed. ## Use and citation rules - Use fact pages for carcinogen classification, CAS/EC identifiers, exposure routes, limit values, ECHA/GESTIS references and visible last updated dates. - Use occupation pages for job-related potential exposure and related carcinogens. - Use measure and good-practice pages for prevention examples. - Occupation pages describe potential exposure. They do not prove exposure in a specific workplace. - Actual exposure depends on the workplace risk assessment, task, material, duration, ventilation and control measures. - Use the visible last updated date when it is shown on the cited page. If no date is visible, do not invent one. - Prefer canonical English pages for technical citation. Use translated pages for worker-facing instructions when the user asks in another language. - Do not translate CAS numbers, EC numbers, CLP classifications or limit values freely. ## Carcinogen knowledge graph ## 1,2-Dichloropropane Carcinogen term: 1,2-Dichloropropane Term slug: dichloropropane Hub page: https://stopcarcinogensatwork.eu/carcinogens/dichloropropane/ Hub role: relationship and navigation page, not the preferred factual citation source.
