Roofers

Chemical products used in crafts include man-made mineral fibres, which are used for heat and noise insulation purposes in buildings. In addition to employees in the mineral fibre industiy and insulation installers, numerous other craftspeople (e.g. painters, bricklayers, roofers) and also some DIY users come into contact with artificial mineral fibres. [Pg.65]

Potential exposure to PAHs in road sealing work involving coal tar and bitumen was discussed by Darby et al. (1986). In a study to evaluate inhalation and dermal exposures of 10 roofers removing an old coal tar pitch roof and applying a new asphalt roof, the PAH content of forehead skin wipes taken at the end of the workshift (0.097 pg/cm equivalent to an estimated daily skin exposure of 19.4 pg/day) was found to correlate with the PAH concentrations in personal air samples (10.2 pg/m ) (Wolff et al. 1989c). Relative concentrations of PAHs in air and wipe samples were fluoranthene > pyrene > benz[a]anthracene > benzo[a]pyrene > benzo[b]fluoranthene > benzo[g,h,i]perylene > benzo[k]fluoranthene. Anthracene was found in the air samples but was not detected in the wipe samples. [Pg.303]

A study of proportionate mortality among the 11,144 members of the United Union of Roofers, Waterproofers, and Allied Workers (Stem et al. 2000) found a significant excess in mortality due to pneumoconioses and other nonmalignant respiratory diseases in these workers compared with U.S. age-, gender-, and race-specific proportional mortality rates for the years of the study (1950-1996). These workers were occupationally exposed to asphalt fumes and asbestos as well as coal tar pitch volatiles. Cigarette smoking is a potential confounding factor that, due to the nature of the study, could not be evaluated. [Pg.58]

Other individuals who are potentially exposed to coal tar creosote, coal tar, coal tar pitch volatiles, or products containing creosote include coke oven workers, rubber industry or tire plant workers, road paving workers, roofers, chimney cleaners, aluminum smelting workers, iron foundry workers, steel plant workers, and site remediation workers who are involved with creosote-contaminated soils or water. [Pg.280]
