The roofing and paving industries both use hot asphalt to create weatherproof surfaces on roofs and highways. Asphalt is a petroleum-based product containing benzene that, when heated, releases benzene vapors into the air.
Examples of trades that risk exposure to benzene in asphalt manufacturing, paving, or roofing include hot mix plant workers, commercial/industrial roofers, and asphalt pavers. Exposure can occur by working around the heated asphalt product and by using solvents to clean or thin out the hot asphalt mix.
For over 29 years, the law firm of Baron & Budd, P.C. has fought to safeguard the rights of victims of toxic substances like benzene. The Leukemia Lawyer Web site is a service of Baron & Budd, P.C.
