    Phoenix Intermodal Terminal:

    The Phoenix Intermodal Terminal, located in Arizona, serves as a critical hub in the United States’ freight transportation network. Originally opened in the early 2000s, the terminal has since become a vital link for the movement of goods between the West Coast and the rest of the country. This facility employs hundreds of workers who manage and facilitate the loading and unloading of intermodal containers. Each day, the terminal handles approximately 15 to 20 trains, reflecting its significant capacity and the volume of goods it processes.

    However, working at the Phoenix Intermodal Terminal comes with its challenges, particularly regarding occupational health and safety. Workers at this rail yard are exposed to various toxins, including diesel exhaust, which contains harmful pollutants such as particulate matter, nitrogen oxides, and volatile organic compounds. Prolonged exposure to these substances can lead to severe health issues, including respiratory problems, cardiovascular diseases, and an increased risk of cancer. Diesel exhaust is classified as a Group 1 carcinogen by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), indicating sufficient evidence of its carcinogenicity in humans.

    To mitigate these risks, it is crucial for the terminal to implement stringent safety measures, such as regular air quality monitoring, the use of protective equipment, and adherence to occupational health guidelines. Ensuring the well-being of workers not only fosters a safer working environment but also enhances the overall efficiency and productivity of the terminal.
