Abstract A number of factors have contributed to increased awareness of the potential hazards to the unborn of various physical, biological, and chemical agents encountered occupationally in the workplace and the laboratory. The number of women of childbearing age in the work force has increased dramatically and precedents establishing legal rights of the unborn have been set. Equal rights to work have put women, and thus possibly the unborn, in contact with agents and stresses previously not commonly experienced. Most important, experimental and epidemiological data have identified, generally in a semiquantitative manner, that high levels of exposure to certain chemicals may represent potential risks to the unborn.
