Each year there are 12,000 deaths due to occupational respiratory diseases in the UK.
33,000 workers last year had breathing or lung problems caused by or
made worse by exposures to dust and fumes at work.
Workers in the UK contract occupational asthma, COPD, Cancer and
other lung diseases due to breathing in too much dust and fumes, in workplaces
that do not have the correct control measures in place. This is where we come in.
