Workplace Hazard
Lately I noticed that there is more and more dust around my workspace. I know that I can’t be considered a diligent person, but at least I should learn to clean up my workplace a little. I realize that neglecting to keep your workspace clean can be hazardous to your health.
Of course dust is not as dangerous as other substance around the workplace that can cause health problem. There are a lot of people who have to deal with more dangerous substance in order to make a living. One of them is being exposed to asbestos, because asbestos can actually cause cancer.
The cancer that was caused by asbestos is called Mesothelioma. It is actually a quite rare cancer, but also quite common to people who has been exposed to asbestos. The sad thing is, Mesothelioma is actually preventable if we understand the cause. I really think that we need to give more attention to hazardous materials at work.
Anyway, I need to take a break, so see you around!
