Well into the 1970s, many industrial workplaces and companies in Ohio were full of asbestos materials. As such, Alliance Industrial workers regularly handled toxic materials, placing them at risk of developing mesothelioma, lung cancer, pulmonary fibrosis, and other occupational lung diseases.
Asbestos was so widely used in many industries because the material was cheap, durable and fire resistant. But asbestos poses severe health risks—a fact established now by international health agencies, and something many companies may have known well before the EPA placed restrictions on workplace and commercial asbestos use.
Alliance Industrial Workers who have suffered lung disease and asbestos-related cancers may have a claim against asbestos manufactures and possibly their former employers for failing to protect employees and failing to warn workers of the serious toxic risks of certain tasks and occupations. Alliance Industrial Workers asbestos exposure may be highest among the following professions:
- Welders
- Painters
- Insulators
- Maintenance crews
- Plumbers and Pipefitters
- Electricians
- Boilermakers
