6. What Trades And Occupations Worked With Asbestos?

There were a wide variety of trades and jobs that were exposed to asbestos dust from building products or raw asbestos. It is not just the workers who worked directly with asbestos and asbestos products that are getting sick from asbestos diseases such as asbestosis, lung cancer and mesothelioma. The victims include workers who worked near or around other people who used these these materials. Because asbestos dust becomes airborne and can be invisible, the fibers travel throughout a worksite and expose all of the workers at that location. In a single sweeping, millions and millions of asbestos fibers can be released into the breathing zone of anybody in that vicinity. Over the course of a career, a worker could have breathed several billion fibers, some of which lodge in the lung, and cause injury.

Some of the occupations that are typically associated with the onset of mesothelioma and other asbestos diseases include:

- Pipe Coverers
- Laborers
- Brake Mechanics
- Auto Mechanics
- Millwrights
- Painters
- Plasterers
