Unprotected workers exposed to as much as 1000 parts per million (ppm) or more died of the chemical’s narcotic effect. At lower levels of exposure, benzene’s unique action on the hematopoietic system caused fatal aplastic anemia. A number of workers who were exposed to benzene escaped these outcomes but at a later date developed acute myelogenous leukemia. As information on this experience with benzene toxicity was collected and publicized, the worker protective level was reduced to 25 ppm; it is now set at 1 ppm.
