Mesothelioma Patient Irving Raymond (#2)

Laborers working on construction sites clean the site, remove debris and load and unload materials.

Construction laborers were exposed to asbestos from loading, unloading, and cleaning up after asbestos-containing materials at construction sites, including floor tiles, boilers, joint compound, ceiling tiles, caulk, cements, and other asbestos materials.

Construction site workers have high rates of respiratory diseases including mesothelioma, lung cancer, and pneumoconiosis.
