Shipyards in Massachusetts
According to the Agency
for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (an agency of the U.S. Department
of Health and Human Services), between 1940 and 1980 an estimated 27 million
American workers had an occupational exposure to asbestos that could affect
their health.
These workers include the thousands of workers who were
exposed to asbestos while working for shipyards in the United States. Many of
these workers spent their careers working at shipyards in
Massachusetts.
The shipyards in Massachusetts include:
- The Charlestown Navy Yard
- The Fore River Shipyard
