Auto workers are at high risk of asbestos exposure

Asbestos is a deadly mineral that has been widely used in many types of products. Asbestos is strong, flexible and cannot burn. Thus, it has been used in automotive products such as brakes, clutch facings, mufflers etc.

People who work with asbestos containing automotive products are at high risk of asbestos exposure. These people maybe exposed to asbestos without even being aware of it. This is because air borne asbestos fibers are not visible to the human eye and can easily be inhaled. Once inhaled, the asbestos fibers accumulate in the lungs and can lead to diseases like mesothelioma, lung cancer and asbestosis decades later.
