This animated video shows how asbestos fibres can damage lung tissue and lead to lung disease. It’s a useful tool for health and safety training in asbestos. Asbestos is a tough, heat-resistant mineral that was added to over 3,000 types of building materials of many older homes. When these buildings are renovated or demolished, the asbestos fibres become airborne and can be inhaled if the proper protections are not in place. As a homeowner or prime contractor working in the construction industry in British Columbia, you need to be aware of the hazards of asbestos and control the risks before making any renovations. Since the year 2000, more workers in B.C. have died from asbestos-related diseases than any other workplace injury. Workers with the highest risk of breathing the fibres include those working in demolition and renovation, trades (e.g., carpenters, plumbers, electricians, painters), and those working in building maintenance and inspection.
