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.
