Lung cancer, mesothelioma - repercussions of working in asbestos environment
2009-05-15 01:53:08 (GMT) (Caymanmama.com - Mesothelioma News News)Dallas, Texas (CaymanMama.com) — Construction industry workers, railway workers, automobile industry, apparel industry, toy and electronic industry workers have all faced the great risk of contracting asbestos related illnesses. The failure of industry owners for extending adequate safety protection to the workers against the asbestos fibers have led many machinists, railway workers, boiler engineers and workers of asbestos industry to the present unhealthy conditions and have left them to fight for their life.
Asbestos fibers are the main cause of mesothelioma cancer and can lie dormant for years. Once the symptoms surface, the recovery of patient’s health is no longer possible through medicine and therapies and their life span is generally reduced to 12 - 24 months.
The owners of the asbestos industry and the work place owners where asbestos was being handled are liable to compensate their employees due to their failure to:
a) Provide adequate warning about the hazards asbestos extended
b) Failure to test the asbestos products for safety
c) Their failure in providing protective clothing
d) Educating their employees about risks and dangers of handling asbestos
e) Letting their employees work without any safety equipment
Asbestos fibers, when inhaled, settle in the inner part of the human body and become the reason for mesothelioma lung cancer, stomach cancer, asbestosis, colon cancer, cancer of rectum, and cancer of the pharynx.
