However, many workers at the headquarters worry about security risks and exposure to asbestos during the renovation. Removal of the cancer-causing asbestos lining the ceiling tiles of the building is one of the most sensitive aspects of the renovation.

The project’s manager, New York architect Michael Adlerstein, has assured U.N. staff that there is nothing to worry about. “There are very stringent requirements for asbestos procedures, and those will be followed by the contractors,” his website says. But Stephen Kisambira, president of the United Nations staff union, is not convinced.

One of the problems, he said, was that contractors removing the asbestos cannot be sued because of the special legal status of the United Nations, which is technically not U.S. territory. Because of the lack of liability, he said, many staff are worried that the contractors will be less careful than usual.

A study published in Occupational and Environmental Medicine has found that those who worked in asbestos textile plants between the 1950s and 1970s face a significantly higher risk of lung cancer and death due to chrysotile asbestos exposure.

While asbestos has previously been linked to an increased risk of lung cancer, mesothelioma, and asbestosis, this study specifically looked at four North Carolina plants that produced textile products with chrysotile asbestos. Chrysotile asbestos is the most commonly used form of the industrial fiber, and amosite and crocidolite are two lesser-used forms of the material.

The current study compared the asbestos exposure and medical histories of 5,770 workers who had been employed at the four North Carolina plants between 1950 and 1973. Of this group, more than 2,500 died during the study period; 277 of these deaths were from lung cancer. The plant workers rate of lung cancer was 95 percent higher than that of the general population, and their rate of death from all causes was 45 percent higher.

The findings of the study could drastically change policy decisions currently being made about the deregulation of chryostile asbestos.

Asbestos exposure can lead to many adverse side effects including lung cancer and gastrointestinal cancer, asbestosis and  mesothelioma.Workers exposed to asbestos and who have been diagnosed with one of these maladies could be entitled to financial compaensation and should contact an asbestos attorney about a mesothelioma lawsuit.

The first problem was that the study linked chrysolite asbestos to lung cancer.  The second and more important problem was that it has taken the agency about a year to release the report.

It took the agency 10 months to receive a copy of the report under the Access to Information law because of the long period of processing it requested according to CanWest News Service.

The Health Canada website had a fact sheet that warned about the dangers posed by asbestos.  In the sheet, Health Canada stated that all forms of asbestos are deemed carcinogenic and links have been discovered between asbestos, lung cancer, and mesothelioma.

CanWest pointed out that the members on the Health Canada panel had opposing views from findings in past reports.  The panel delayed the release of the report.  David Bernstein, formerly connected with asbestos firms, was named as a panelist with strong opposing views.

Leslie Stayner, a University of Illinois School of Public Health director, was quoted that panel members could not agree on the degree of difference between exposure to amphibole asbestos and chrysolite asbestos with mesothelioma.  She also stated, “The bottom line here is that all forms of asbestos cause both mesothelioma and lung cancer.”

Mesothelioma is an aggressive form of cancer that is caused by exposure to asbestos. It can take a long time for symptoms to appear, often as long as 30 years. For this reason, a mesothelioma diagnosis is often fatal.
