Proposed bill in Parliament raises issue of asbestos compensation
Exposure to asbestos can lead to various different health problems, including mesothelioma and lung cancer which can be fatal. Compensation will not be the first thing that a family thinks of when a loved one is ill but the money can provide financial security at a very difficult time.
Asbestos claims possible decades after exposure
It is possible to claim compensation for debilitating health conditions caused by exposure to asbestos even if it has been decades since exposure. This is possible even if the employer and their insurance company no longer operates. Asbestos-related conditions can be debilitating or fatal in some cases and compensation can provide financial security.
