While you may not work an industry such as healthcare where exposure to bloodborne pathogens is a major concern, you should still be aware of how to prevent exposure.

Silicosis is a disabling, progressive, non-reversible, and often deadly lung disease. You may show no symptoms in the early stages and severe breathing problems in the later stages.

Exposure to lead is most common among plumbers, welders, painters, and demolition workers. You are most at risk when there’s lead dust, fume, or vapour in the air.

Severe lead poisoning may cause much more serious symptoms such as anemia and kidney, nerve, and brain damage. It has also caused miscarriages and stillbirths in pregnant women and reduced sperm count in men.
