In this informative video, Asbestos Attorney Justinian Lane from Asbestos Claims Law addresses the often-overlooked asbestos exposure risks faced by material handling and transportation workers. While these professionals may not directly work with asbestos products, their roles in handling and transporting materials can lead to significant exposure due to the dusty nature of asbestos.
Justinian begins with a foundational overview of asbestos, its properties, and its widespread use in various industries until the 1970s when its severe health hazards led to a decline in use. He emphasizes that there is no safe level of asbestos exposure, with even minimal contact potentially leading to serious respiratory diseases and cancers.
The video then shifts focus to the specific risks faced by material handlers and transportation workers. Justinian discusses how these professionals can be exposed to asbestos through the handling and transportation of asbestos-containing materials. He explains that the disturbance of these materials, even through simple actions like dropping them, can release clouds of asbestos dust, posing a significant risk of inhalation and subsequent asbestos-related illnesses.
