Health Risks in Construction: Abnormal Chest X-Ray, Pulmonary Function, and Beryllium Sensitivity

This study examines the prevalence of abnormal chest X-rays, pulmonary function tests, and beryllium sensitivity among selected construction occupations at U.S. Department of Energy sites from 1996 to 2010. It also contrasts lung diseases among older construction workers over a decade, comparing construction trades to white-collar occupations from 1998 to 2008. The findings highlight significant occupational health risks in the construction industry, emphasizing the need for better monitoring and protective measures for workers exposed to hazardous materials.
