From the early 1900s and into the 1980s, plumbers may have been exposed to asbestos materials on the job. Plumbers could have encountered asbestos-containing products through their installation and repair work on sewer and water pipes and through their work with boilers, pumps and valves manufactured between the 1900s and 1980s.
Various exposures to asbestos have caused plumbers to be at an increased risk of developing asbestos-related diseases, such as mesothelioma.
