The main activity of the people working in the asbestos abatement industry entails removing the asbestos remnants from buildings and other contaminated structures as it still poses a risk for the people that unknowingly interact with the contaminated materials.
Claim EvaluationAbatement workers are required to enter in direct contact with the asbestos from the construction products that were used until the 1980s. As these materials are usually found in a state of complete degradation, the asbestos contained within is in a friable state, which makes its fibers to be released more easily as they get disturbed. The people working in this line of business risk their lives on a constant basis in order to contain and eliminate the dangers concerning asbestos exposure.
The constant threat of asbestos exposure for these workers makes their job an extremely difficult one, as faulty safety equipment can exponentially raise the risk of developing in their later years, diseases like mesothelioma, asbestosis or lung cancer by breathing in demolition dust.

Abatement workers are exposed to asbestos by contact with damaged products such as floor tiles, vinyl wallpaper, cement, mastic and stone sheeting which they are required to safely dispose of. Due to the brittleness of these materials, asbestos fibers will come off with the slightest disturbance and abatement workers are at high risk of inhaling them if the equipment they use is defective or improperly worn.
Interacting with asbestos-contaminated materials for prolonged periods of time, abatement workers risk getting their health affected in their later years by illnesses like mesothelioma, lung cancer, and asbestosis. Due to their extended period of latency, these diseases usually show symptoms after 30 or even 40 years after the initial exposure.
