[To discuss the problems existing in the labor ability appraisal of an occupational chronic benzene poisoning...

Three female workers in a golf club production company in Guangzhou were diagnosed with occupational chronic mild benzene poisoning. Two of the female workers were assessed as Grade 7 disabilities. One female worker showed the symptoms of the decline of whole blood cells for unknown reasons in the later stages of the medical period. The final assessment was a Class 5 disability. The problems in this work ability appraisal include: the injury condition of the patient who has not been stable during the work ability appraisal, and the contradiction between the disability grade and the occupational disease diagnosis conclusion. In order to avoid similar situations, the following recommendations are recommended: after the worker's injury situation is relatively stable, the assessment will be conducted, the employer will actively exercise the right to review and appraisal, and the diagnosis of occupational diseases will be included in the evaluation criteria for disability grade.
