County May Be Liable for Asbestos Exposure!

Every year, more than 10,000 people die from asbestos-related diseases. The majority of these victims were exposed to asbestos as a result of their employment in heavy industry or construction. A growing number of recent victims, however, were exposed to asbestos in unconventional ways and through non-industrial employment. For instance, a former Genesee County employee recently sued his former employer, alleging that the county knowingly performed unsafe asbestos work in homes, endangering residents and workers. In one year, County employees engaged in unsafe asbestos work in more than seventy-five homes!

If you've worked for as a public employee engaged in asbestos removal, home weatherization or other building renovation projects, you may have been exposed to asbestos, too.
