Imperial Valley Toxic Chemicals Attorney
A toxic chemical is any type of substance that is considered hazardous, unsafe to work with or dangerous to be exposed to. In the U.S., there are over 600 toxic chemicals listed on the Environmental Protection Agency's Toxics Release Inventory. When exposed to these chemicals or handling these chemicals, people must be extremely diligent and careful or else they may incur irreversible injuries. In more drastic cases, people may even die from dealing with toxic chemicals.
There are occupations in which workers must handle or be exposed to toxic chemicals. However, in these occupations, employers are supposed to provide their workers with the supervision, training and information they need to avoid being harmed by the dangerous substances. Employers are also responsible for warning their workers when a toxic chemical is present. Whenever employers fail to protect the safety of their workers and workers are injured after encountering toxic chemicals, employers may be accused of negligence. In some cases, employers may even be sued if their workers are seriously injured.
