Overview: Railroad Worker Cancer Risks
Railroad workers may have been exposed to the highly toxic chemical Benzene, which can be inhaled and absorbed through the skin. Early on, it was believed that Benzene could only cause lung cancer, but Benzene exposure has been linked to the following types of cancer:
Bladder Cancer
Colon Cancer
Esophageal Cancer
Hodgkin’s Lymphoma
Kidney Cancer
Lung Cancer
Mesothelioma
Multiple Myeloma
Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma
Laryngeal Cancer
Rectal Cancer
Stomach Cancer
Throat Cancer
Leukemia
Other Cancer
Other Railroad Worker Cancer Risks
There are other carcinogens that railroad workers may have been exposed to that may also explain cancers developed by those who work on locomotives, including creosote and other chemical solvents.
There is evidence that creosote may cause skin cancer and cancer of the scrotum. Chemical solvents may cause chronic toxic encephalopathy and other brain diseases.
Railroad companies who were responsible for providing a safe work environment may be in violation of the Federal Employers Liability Act (FELA).
A railroad worker who was diagnosed with cancer may think the cancer was because of his or her family history or another explanation, when it may be because of hazardous chemicals you were exposed to on the job. FELA allows employees who worked in such unsafe environments to seek financial compensation, and such lawsuits do not require out-of-pocket costs on the part of the railroad worker.
If you or your loved one were diagnosed with cancer or another serious illness and worked on the railroad for more than five years, you may be qualify to file railroad worker cancer lawsuit.
