Sheet metal workers are at risk for developing mesothelioma from on-the-job asbestos exposure

Sheet metal workers create, install and maintain a wide range of products and equipment that use sheet metal e.g. heating equipment, roofing materials, ventilation equipment and rain gutters. Sheet metal workers work in a variety of settings such as shipyards and factories. 

Sheet metal workers are at risk of becoming exposed to asbestos and developing mesothelioma because they often work in poorly ventilated areas that have asbestos containing materials. Asbestos fibers released from the asbestos containing materials remain confined in poorly ventilated areas and can be inhaled by those who work in those areas. Inhaled asbestos fibers can lead to lethal diseases such as lung cancer and mesothelioma decades later.
