Creating awareness to prevent
occupational lung disease in
the construction industry

Many respiratory hazards cannot be seen by the naked eye

And many ill health effects don’t appear until many years later

The World Health Organisation (WHO) and the International Labour Organisation (ILO) estimate that work-related diseases cause 4 times as many deaths globally as work-related injuries
 

The Breathe Freely Ireland program is aimed at preventing occupational lung disease and protecting worker health through improving awareness of hazards and safe work practices.

TREAT HEALTH LIKE SAFETY

There is an increased awareness within the industry about the need to focus more on health
