The majority of individuals diagnosed with mesothelioma or other asbestos related diseases were exposed to asbestos while on the job. The use of asbestos was widespread in the 1900s and asbestos products could be found in jobsites across a variety of industry segments. As a result, many individuals who worked at those jobsites were placed at risk for developing mesothelioma.
Mesothelioma.com has organized a directory of asbestos jobsites by industry for your reference. We are in the process of adding more jobsites to the database which we will continue to expand over time. Please be sure to check back often!
