"An estimated 1.3 million employees in construction and general industry
face significant asbestos exposure in their jobs. Employees are also likely to
be exposed during the manufacture of asbestos products (such as textiles,
friction products, insulation, and other building materials) and during
automotive and clutch repair work."--Occupational Safety & Health
Administration, osha.gov
