I know my job is killing me the dust and airborne matter is always there .along with fumes from the machines in run .my family reli on me to bring home the bacon the state believe I'm able to work so if I leave my job my benefits will be suspended in feel I'm left with no choice but to stay in a job I've been in for 6 years .in have always worked and still do .but not in a job that is going to kill me by shortening my life the c.o.p.d is doing that already.
Does your employer issue masks for you to wear in your job? If not, demand it from your supervisor. If unlucky there, go to your nearest government health agency to report it.
If your doctor says you can't work in those conditions how can they not. Try looking for other employment.
Hi Steve, I would definitely ask your employer for a mask,after all its your health and life at risk not theirs. You have a right to work in safe conditions xxx😃
