Narrative

The employee and the employee's personal physicians believe there was an inhalation exposure to a chemical during work shifts in April 2011. The employee believes the possible occupational illness came from breathing tire smoke from a burning tire on the burner floor of the cement plant. A worker comp claim was filed but no occupational illness has been confirmed.
