Asbestos exposure.

Hi everyone. 

I have recently been exposed to asbestos. My current workplace has been shut down due to the levels of asbestos found. I have been working there for over 3 years now. It's an old workshop where walls and roof are asbestos. 

 

What's the likelihood I would contract a cancer for this exposure. I'm aware its potentially low level. 

 

Many thanks 

  • Hi Tomgriff88,

    Most people have been exposed to low levels of asbestos, as it can be found in soil and air and yet few people become ill from it.

    If you need further advice, it's best speak to to the person involved in the case or contact your local council and speak to an asbestos officer.
