This project is intended to provide free medical screening
to former workers in the building trades (construction workers). The
screening will target health problems resulting from exposures, including
asbestos, beryllium, cadmium, chromium, lead, mercury, noise, radiation,
silica and/or solvents. The project is to be carried out by a large
group led by The Center to Protect Workers' Rights, an applied
occupational health research and development center of the Building
and Construction Trades Department of the AFL-CIO, in partnership
with Duke University Medical Center, University of Cincinnati
Medical Center, and Zenith Administrators.
