Abstract
Clustering of health events in or around industrial facilities sometimes leads to worker and community concerns that plant management or local health professionals must address. We provide an eight-step process to deal with these concerns systematically. We emphasize the use of good scientific practices with managerial oversight for effective worker and community communication. This process is directed to plant management and the local health professional and emphasizes the practical aspects of the investigation.
