The New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) Pesticide Control Program's Worker Protection Standard (WPS) Unit publishes fact sheets on various pesticides that are distributed to agricultural employers to have on file should their employees request them. This is one component of the WPS program to inform agricultural workers of the pesticides to which they are exposed and the possible effects of the chemicals on their health. This factsheet (#7 in the series) covers Acetanilides, containing information such as its chemical and common names, symptoms of poisoning, short- and long-term health hazards, protective equipment that should be worn when working with the pesticide and emergency treatment.
