For what?
I have been in the plastics industry for quite some time, now.
The plastics we deal in have no real hazards surrounding them. What is your question?

A wide range of hazards are discussed in the documents HERE

My pet plastic hazard is that I do not feel ANYONE should continue for too long eating frozen dinners coming from the SAME company, as any plastics chemistry *weeping* from their dishes will be absorbed in your body in the quantity to which you are exposed, and when it is your FOOD that it is IN, it is HARD to AVOID, so I personally believe you should at least CHANGE UP to a DIFFERENT company's materials, and hopefully then a slightly DIFFERENT exposure, on a fairly regular basis. ;)
