Railroad companies hid the dangers of working with products that released asbestos dust and asbestos fibers. Workers that were exposed to asbestos are at risk for developing many life threatening illnesses including mesothelioma and lung cancer. While these are the two illnesses most often linked to exposure, other asbestos related diseases include asbestosis, throat cancer, esophageal cancer, stomach cancer, and colon cancer.
Railroad Worker Asbestos Exposure
If you were employed by a railroad company and have developed any of the previously mentioned illnesses you may be entitled to compensation. In some cases, it can take more than 30 years for symptoms of these diseases begin to show. This is why it is important for any that was a railroad employee prior to 1982 to stay on top of routine health screenings. The sooner you catch the development of an illness the better your chances of fighting it will be.
