 # Instructions to the doppelganger
 
-As we introduced in the section on Noxiousness, *The Work Environment* (L'Ambiente di Lavoro, 1967) was a tool for organizers and workers together to begin to research and understand the risks to which their jobs would expose them. The booklet focuses on noxiousness, which it breaks down into 4 groups of factors:
-
-1)	Environmental conditions: noise, temperature, light, ventilation, humidity…
-2)	Production-specific elements, such as: gas, dust, smoke, fumes, exposure to chemicals…
-3)	Physical factors: exertion, muscular fatigue, lack of sufficient rest and sleep, excessive rhythms, etc…

 Finally, a key aspect of the instructions to the doppelganger was that they were held as group interviews, where collective patterns of noxiousness would become noticeable and become the bases for political struggles and demands.
 
 L’Ambiente di lavoro was since then translated by unions in 7 different countries and it also became the basis for hundreds of workers enquiries across Italy.
