Exposure to Silica in the Workplace

The American Lung Association conservatively estimates that approximately 2.3 million U.S. workers are regularly exposed to silica in the workplace, including 2 million in construction and 300,000 in other industries.

Exposure to silica is widespread and growing, in large part to the soaring popularity of engineered stone use in construction and home renovation projects.

Prolonged exposure to silica dust over time can cause catastrophic and potentially fatal health conditions. A 2019 study in Australia determined that at least twelve percent of workers who cut stone countertops had silicosis.

If you or someone you know has been diagnosed with a lung disease such as silicosis, lung cancer, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), Tuberculosis (TB), or other autoimmune disorders and have had prolonged exposure to silica dust, you may be entitled to compensation. Don’t wait to seek legal help. Contact us at Light & Miller, LLP today to schedule a free consultation with one of our experienced silicosis attorneys.
