Emphysema Railroad Settlements
Railroad workers who suffer from lung diseases such as Emphysema and emphysema might submit claims under the Federal Employers Liability Act (FELA). Ken Danzinger, shareholder at Simmons Hanly Conroy, can help those suffering from lung diseases to receive compensation for past and future medical costs.
Occupational exposures to diesel exhaust minerals and coal dusts, welding fumes silica and secondhand smoke could cause emphysema. A FELA claim could hold responsible parties accountable.
Silica
Silica is an important mineral in the human body. It is found in cartilage and bones, tendons and bones and blood as well as in the urine. It is also found in the lungs and is used to aid breathing by some medications. If workers are exposed to silica dust it could trigger Emphysema cancer settlement. Inhaling the dust can cause the lungs' swelling to the point of swelling. This condition can also cause the lungs to lose their ability to absorb oxygen. This can make breathing difficult.
Crystalline silica can be found in sands, soils and even in stones. It is also used to make materials like concrete, glass and bricks. These materials create dust containing silica crystals when they are cut, drilled, or chipped. These particles are easily inhaled, posing a health risk for construction workers. Exposure to crystalline silica can lead to pulmonary fibrosis (an irreversible scarring and stiffening of the lungs) as well as lung cancer, asthma and chronic obstructive respiratory disease. It can also contribute to kidney disease and tuberculosis.
People who are exposed to high levels of crystalline dust are at a greater risk of developing emphysema. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration has regulations about this type of exposure. Many workers who are exposed to this type of dust do not have any protection for their workplaces. This includes steel mill employees, stone quarrying workers and miners.
Welding Fumes
When metal is heated during an arc-welding process the welding fumes are produced. They are a mix of metallic oxides (oxides), silicates (silicates) and fluorides. The welding fumes can be harmful to workers and can cause respiratory issues such as Emphysema injury and asthma. In addition these welding fumes may also be harmful to the eyes and skin.
Welders are often working with high levels of nickel, chrome manganese, and nickel. These elements are used to make stainless steels and other alloys. These welding fumes can cause irritation to the throat and eyes, and lead to lung issues, heart disease and kidney damage. A number of studies have revealed that welders have an increased chance of developing emphysema as compared to non-welders. The risks were even higher when smokers were included in the study.
Many workers on the railroad are also exposed to diesel exhaust fumes which are a major cause of Emphysema. A recent trial in Texas that involved railroad workers exposed to diesel fumes ended in the defense verdict. However there is a growing body of evidence suggests long-term exposure to diesel exhaust fumes can result in lung conditions similar to those caused by welding fumes. As a result, an increasing number of railroad workers are making claims for workers' compensation for lung conditions such as emphysema, and are seeking compensation from their employers under the Federal Employers Liability Act.
Second-Hand Smoke
Smoking tobacco or breathing in secondhand smoke increases the likelihood of developing Emphysema cancer settlement. This is because the chemicals that a cigarette emits together with the toxins smoke smokers exhale are released into the air. The lungs are susceptible to damage over time, and symptoms of Emphysema Railroad cancer settlement like breathing difficulties can develop. These symptoms can be experienced in activities that have low impact on the body or at a higher rate when doing strenuous activities.
Railroad workers are often diagnosed with COPD as well as emphysema as a result of exposure to diesel exhaust or welding fumes as well as silica, coal, or mineral dust. Signs of COPD can include mucus that doesn't disappear, shortness of breath with exercise or blue lips and fingernails. Our FELA lawyers can help railroad workers seek financial compensation for work-related illness.
Asbestos
Asbestos is a naturally occurring silicate mineral which is found in six different forms. It is a material that is friable which means that when dry, it may crumble and then pulverize or be powdered. The result is the release of microscopic fibers into the air that can be inhaled. This can trigger a range of diseases, emphysema railroad Cancer settlement including mesothelioma and asbestosis.
Asbestos is found in shops and railroad yards where it is used to build or repair rail cars. It was also used as an insulation material for older rail structures, like boxcars, cabooses and locomotives. Asbestos is a material that can withstand fire that made it a preferred choice. However, it's known to be a carcinogen that can lead to mesothelioma, lung cancer and emphysema.
Under the Federal Employers Liability Act (FELA), railroad workers injured can sue their employer for compensation. Railroad companies fight these claims with a vengeance and, in some cases, they have a valid point. It can be difficult to prove that a worker's injury was caused solely through railroad work.
We have several attorneys at Simmons Hanly Conroy who are proficient in bringing FELA suits on behalf of injured railroad employees. We recently were able to secure a significant mesothelioma settlement for the family of railroad worker who passed away from mesothelioma.
