The study aimed to measure total suspended particulate (TSP) exposure concentrations and estimate its non-carcinogenic risk through the inhalation pathway among different occupational groups in two underground coal mines in Northern Malawi. Conducted as a cross-sectional study, it utilised personal samplers to collect quantitative data on TSP concentrations from 157 miners grouped into six similar exposure groups (SEGs) during working hours. This approach facilitated the assessment of occupational exposure and its potential health risks based on measurable and numerical data.
