Nowadays, people cleaning asbestos are required to wear special protective masks and clothing to prevent them from inhaling or swallowing harmful asbestos fibers. But for decades, the asbestos industry hid the dangers of its product. Many people regularly breathed in asbestos without knowing it could cause health problems later in life.
Even after OSHA, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, began regulating asbestos exposure and requiring protective gear at workplaces, many companies did not follow the rules, and pressured employees to continue working without proper protection.
Millions of workers and their families were exposed to asbestos because the asbestos industry hid the dangers of its product. Courts ordered that billions of insurance dollars be placed in trusts to compensate people with asbestos-related illnesses. But nearly 40% of the funds have still gone unclaimed by the people they are intended to help.
