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.
