This project is conducted by the Unitedsteel Workers in conjunction with Queens College of
the City University of New York. The program is being offered as a service
to both former and current workers. Free of charge,
eligible workers can receive a medical exam, including
chest X-ray and breathing test, and an educational workshop. This program also offers CT scans for early lung cancer detection to workers who have an elevated risk of lung cancer as a result of a combination of occupational exposures, age, and/or tobacco use.
