Asbestos Exposure. Our office regularly receives inquiries from members who have questions about lung impairment due to asbestos exposure in the past. One of the conditions caused by asbestos exposure is called “asbestosis”. This refers to the scarring of lung tissue caused by the inhalation of asbestos fibres. It may result in shortness of breath. Inhalation of fibres may also result in pleural plaques which are localized areas of scarring on the lining surrounding the lungs. The existence of asbestosis or of pleural plaques, by themselves, are not sufficient for the WSIB to pay benefits. There must be evidence of a limitation of lung function that is severe enough for the WSIB to recognize that a permanent impairment exists. However, it is still important to follow any medical treatment or testing that is recommended by your doctor. If you have questions about the above, please contact La-Xxxx Xxxxxxxx at 0-000-000-0000, extension 361.

Improper fit: The chances of safety eyewear fitting in 2012 are greater then ever before given the variety and selection of safety eyewear available. When selecting eyewear, make sure it is form fitting to protect the eyes from particles and liquids from getting in. Inappropriate lenses for the circumstances: Find out all you can about what features you need in your protective eyewear. Not safety approved: Beware of products that call themselves ‘safety glasses’. Make sure they fit the standards referenced in the Ontario Health and Safety Act. Wearing eyewear somewhere else: Wearing safety glasses doesn’t mean wearing them on your head or around your neck. Eye safety glasses are for your eyes only. Eye injuries can cause serious vision loss or even blindness. They are among the problems most often treated in hospital emergency rooms. Mor...
