Respiratory Disease & Occupational Asthma

Exposure to dust and fumes at work can cause one or more of several types of respiratory diseases. Employers have a legal duty of care to ensure the health and safety of their staff and to provide adequate protection in potentially hazardous environments.

There are many types of respiratory disease including:

• Emphysema
• Pneumoconiosis
• Silicosis
• Chronic Bronchitis
• Asthma
• Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease/Chronic Obstructive Airways Disease (known as COPD/COAD)

Occupations most at risk of respiratory diseases include:

• Construction
• Mining
• Textiles, leather and rubber
• Plastics and synthetics manufacture
• Spray painters
• Welders
• Bakers and flour confectioners

If you have suffered any of the above conditions because of your work environment, it may be possible to claim compensation from your employers. Graysons solicitors handle claims for individuals relating to all types of industrial processes and work places. We also act for over 10,000 miners pursuing claims against British Coal/DTI and have already recovered tens of millions of pounds in compensation for them.
