Chemical Agents. The psychological, physiological, and toxicological effects of certain chemicals on the human body have been well-documented, and behavioral changes and mental disturbances resulting from chemical exposure that could lead to violence in workplace have been noted for many chemicals used in a wide variety of workplaces (Xxxxxxxx, 1996). Workplace exposure to metals and organic solvents is known to modify behaviors and increase excitability and irritation (Xxxxxxxx 1996). Metals that are commonly found in industrial settings and hazardous waste sites include mercury, lead, manganese, and tin. Of these metals, mercury and lead are the most commonly present at construction sites and environmental remediation sites in concentrations high enough to cause toxicity in adults. Exposure to high levels of mercury causes the condition known as erethism, which is typified by antisocial behavior and emotional outbursts. Author Xxxxx Xxxxxxx illustrated this bizarre behavior with his character The Mad Hatter in Xxxxx’s Adventures in Wonderland (Xxxxxxx 2010). However, in construction and remediation settings, mercury toxicity is relatively uncommon, due to the chemical‘s heavy molecular weight, low boiling point, and low vapor pressure, which makes airborne exposure unlikely (Xxxxxxxx, 1997). Lead is more common and pervasive at construction and remediation sites, commonly found in the form of dust. The dust is inhaled by workers and overexposure to lead in adults can cause irritability, anxiety, and sleep disorders. Often these symptoms are present in the absence of other physical symptoms such as anemia, peripheral neuropathies, wrist drop, and lead lines in the gums. In some cases, the mental and behavioral symptoms are present but the lead toxicity goes undiagnosed because of the lack of physical symptoms (Xxxxxxx, 2009). Manganese and tin cause toxic responses similar to that of lead, but they are not frequently encountered in the construction or remediation industries. Other metals such as arsenic, thallium, bismuth and zinc, which are often found at hazardous waste sites, will display systemic pathologies prior to behavioral changes (Xxxxxxxx, 1997). Organic solvents typically present behavioral changes in acute dosages and exposure scenarios. The mechanism by which solvents reach the brain via their ability to cross the blood/brain barrier is well-known. Epidemiological studies linking chronic exposures of organic solvents with antisocial behaviors have been repor...
