Abstract

Employees of chemical industry play a significant role in environmental protection. In order to solve environmental problems it is necessary for them to improve knowledge on environmental impact of chemicals which they come in contact with. The aim of research is the analysis of the ecochemical knowledge in employees of the fertilizer industry in the Novi Sad region (Serbia), and structuring of chemical contents for further increase of their knowledge. Analytical and descriptive methods were used. The research instrument was a questionnairre, specially designed for the purpose of this research. Techniques of research were: field investigation, action investigation and combined techniques. It was shown that workers have certain, but insufficient knowledge of environmental effect of chemical pollutants. They should improve the existing and acquire new knowledge. A model of differentiated eco-chemical education was created for permanent adult professional education.
