PFD Monitor interpretation

Failure to protect employees exposed to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons with protective equipment

Wider context from the report

“Evidence was given before the Court that the deceased worked without protective equipment and was therefore regularly and extensively exposed to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. There is an establish link between exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon and Urothelial Tract Carcinoma The inquest heard that employees continue to work in the same environment without any protective equipment In my opinion there is a risk that future deaths may occur unless a system is established at Beatson Clark to protect employee being exposed to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. ”

Is this part of a recurring concern?

Yes — Failure to ensure employees have suitable personal protective equipment for workplace hazards.
