on-the-job toxic exposure
Toxic Product Exposure
Unfortunately, many people experience toxic exposure just by going to work every day. Products used in the military, agriculture, and emergency response industries have had particularly dangerous products that have resulted in health conditions like cancer and hearing loss as well as respiratory disease and neurodegenerative conditions like Parkinson’s Disease.
Toxic Product Exposure include:
- 3M Military Earplugs (CAEv2)
- AFFF – Firefighting Foam
- Paraquat Herbicide
- PFOA and PFOS exposure
AFFF – Firefighting Foam
Aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF) also commonly called “firefighting foam” has been found to potentially cause many types of cancer. If you were exposed to AFFF either in a civilian or military capacity, you may be eligible for substantial compensation.
