In recent news about the dangers of asbestos exposure, the widower of an industrial cleaner who died of mesothelioma has won compensation in an asbestos lawsuit.

The cleaner was exposed to asbestos while working for a company for many years.

His wife brought a mesothelioma lawsuit after her husband died from the asbestos-related cancer, in 2006.

His wife, who remarried after his death, was awarded asbestos compensation.

Her compensation includes money for the care and assistance she gave to her husband while he underwent treatment for the mesothelioma cancer.

He was exposed to the deadly material when he worked as a cleaner for the company between 1965 and 1970.

His job included cleaning the asbestos corrugated roofs of factories and cleaning pipes lagged with asbestos.
