Ohio Asbestos Lawyer
Representing Canton Steel Foundry Workers with Mesothelioma & Asbestos Cancer Claims
Workers at Canton Steel Foundry and other steel plants in Northeast Ohio were commonly exposed to asbestos and other toxins, and may later develop lung diseases, including mesothelioma cancer.
Many former employees at industrial facilities in Ohio and around the Midwest have been diagnosed with occupational cancers, and other serious diseases. This happened because asbestos was so widely used in construction materials and the dust turned out to be extremely carcinogenic. As such, almost any worker in steel plants could be at risk of developing asbestosis, lung cancer, and mesothelioma.
Canton Steel Foundry Asbestos Exposure
Asbestos was used in foundries for piping, equipment and machinery insulation. The staff at Canton, Ohio warehouses and factories who handled this material at still at risk. We believe that the management at companies who used asbestos had a duty to protect workers, and if they failed, they can be held liable. Workers at Canton factories have been involved in asbestos lawsuits and have settled for substantial sums.
Asbestos was not always known to be so hazardous to the health, but now the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) all consider asbestos to be a direct source of cancer risk.
Foundries ands steel plant workers have fallen ill with the following related illnesses:
- Angiosarcoma
- Mesothelioma Cancer
- Asbestosis
- Lung Cancer
- Esophageal Cancer
- Colorectal Cancer
