Laborers: You have a right to seek financial compensation for your asbestos illness. Please complete the form on this page for a free lawsuit review. Laborers are at an increased risk for developing asbestos diseases such as malignant mesothelioma, asbestosis and lung cancer. This is because the many products laborers worked with contained asbestos, a known carcinogen.
Construction laborers mainly use concrete products in their jobs, and as a support craft in carpentry, bricklaying, and drywall. Tragically, all of these duties placed laborers in direct contact with asbestos dust and fibers. A laborer does all line and grade for highway projects and the placement of concrete on roads and bridges. They also set up transit and lasers for storm and sanitary pipe, and install water mains.
Laborers also remove asbestos materials, hazardous and toxic waste, and lead abatement. Many employers failed to give their workers the proper protective masks and clothing, or to warn their employees about the hazards of exposure to asbestos. Thousands of laborers have come forward to say their work environment led to a diagnosis of mesothelioma, asbestosis or lung cancer from asbestos.
