Union Protests Hiring of Asbestos Removal Firm by Brunswick, NJ Pharmaceutical Company

After a Brunswick, NJ company hired an abatement firm to remove asbestos from buildings at their Raritan, NJ facility, they quickly found themselves under fire from a local labor union for hiring the abatement company. The union alleges the abatement company has a substandard reputation in terms of both environmental and labor compliance. Since May 2006, the Cherry Hill, NJ, abatement company has been fined on three different occasions for failure to meet regulatory standards pertaining to the removal of asbestos.

Exposure to asbestos is known to cause serious diseases such as mesothelioma, asbestos-related lung cancer and asbestosis.
