This project is intended to provide free medical screening
to former workers in the building trades (construction workers). The
screening targets health problems resulting from exposures, including
asbestos, beryllium, cadmium, chromium, lead, mercury, noise, radiation,
silica and/or solvents. The project is being carried out by a large
group led by CPWR - The Center for Construction Research and Training, an applied
occupational health research and development center of the Building
and Construction Trades Department of the AFL-CIO, in partnership
with Duke University Medical Center, University of Cincinnati
Medical Center, and Zenith American Solutions, Inc.
