Occupational Disease Resources

Building trades workers who were active during the period from approximately 1940 through the early 1980s were routinely exposed to asbestos-containing insulation, gaskets, joint compound, and fireproofing at industrial and commercial jobsites.

Conditions associated with this exposure include mesothelioma, asbestosis, and asbestos-related lung cancer. These conditions can have latency periods of 20–50 years and may not appear until decades after exposure ended.
