For many AFSCME members, exposure to serious health hazards is all in a day's work. On-thejob exposure to chemicals, such as solvents, paints, disinfectants, fumes, dusts, sewer chemicals, cutting oils, pesticides, degreasers, and cleaning chemicals can make you sick and even kill you. Some chemicals may also pose safety hazards and have the potential to cause fires and explosions and other serious accidents.
