Chemical exposure can occur in many workplaces, and symptoms are sometimes overlooked or dismissed. Common warning signs may include:
🔸Breathing difficulty or coughing
🔸Dizziness or headaches
🔸Burning sensations on the skin
🔸Hives or rashes
🔸Irritated or watery eyes
If you notice symptoms, seek medical care and document the date and location of the exposure. Also document the names of any chemicals you are aware of being exposed to, and provide that information to doctors. Don't hesitate to consult with a workers compensation attorney about your rights. Taking these steps early can make a difference.
