Demolition workers at risk of exposure to asbestos dust

Demolition crews working on a site with old buildings are at risk of exposure to asbestos dust.

Asbestos has been extensively used in buildings for purposes such as insulation.

While asbestos containing materials do not always pose a health risk, when these materials are disturbed (e.g. by demolition), asbestos fibers can be released into the environment.

The fibers can then be inhaled and cause serious illnesses like mesothelioma or lung cancer decades later.
