Exposure Risks for Plumbers
Plumbers face several significant exposure risks in their work. They are frequently exposed to hazardous materials, including asbestos in older buildings, which can lead to respiratory issues and lung disease. They also handle chemicals and solvents used in pipe cleaning and sealing, which can cause skin irritation and respiratory problems. Additionally, plumbers often work in confined spaces, increasing the risk of physical injuries such as strains and falls. The risk of exposure to contaminated water and waste can also pose health hazards. To mitigate these risks, plumbers should use personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves, safety goggles, and respiratory protection, and follow strict safety protocols and proper training.
