Suppose five workers died because of exposure to a toxic chemical. Calculate the YPLL for these five workers, given their ages at death were 20, 25, 30, 35, and 40. Use age 65 years as the endpoint.

Answer:

175 years

Explanation:

YPLL is years of potential life lost. Represents number of years a person would have lived if they didn't die early.

To calculate the YPLL use the following formula

YPLL= Σ(age at endpoint - age of death)

YPLL= (65-20)+(65-25)+(65-30)+(65-35)+(65-40)

YPLL= 45+ 40+ 35+ 30+ 25

YPLL= 175 years
