Asbestos-related deaths in Great Britain

Lady in the Water move The British Journal of Cancer has recently published a study relating to the number of UK workers and others who can be expected to die from asbestos exposure. The study, an interdisciplinary effort that included contributions from physicians, bench and clinical researchers, epidemiologists, statisticians, and others, is the largest scientific investigation of its kind ever conducted in the UK.

The report finds that one in 50 plumbers, decorators, and electricians will die from asbestos exposure, along with one in 125 construction workers and one in 17 carpenters. Researchers found the highest mortality rate in those who had 10 years of exposure to asbestos before the age of 30.

The report also states that approximately two-thirds of UK men and one-fourth of all British women had occupational exposure to asbestos at some point in their life.

The study also cites an increased risk of asbestos-caused disease in those who live with an individual who had been exposed to the cancer-causing material. Health and worker safety officials are now expected to use the report’s findings to push for stricter nationwide controls on asbestos.
