The shipyard, oil refineries, and power plants all contain asbestos in their materials that highly expose their employees. The material used to construct a ship contains asbestos. The employees may have been exposed by handling paneling, pipes, construction materials, protective clothing, insulation, generators, boilers, adhesives, and other materials.
Secondary exposure is another way someone can be a victim to asbestos exposure. This happens when workers in any of the above industries returned home at the end of the day in the clothes they worked in, they inadvertently exposed their loved ones to the carcinogenic material. Wives doing laundry, children sitting in a parent’s lap, and babies crawling on the floor all could have been exposed to asbestos fibers and could develop mesothelioma many years later.
