Steps and Services
Construction consistently ranks among
the most dangerous occupations in the
U.S. so it makes sense that construction
laborers are more likely to be in pain - and seek relief from that pain - than the average employee.
LIUNA General President Terry O'Sullivan : "Opioids have become another occupational hazard in the construction industry. LIUNA and its signatory partners fight every day to keep Laborers safe from hazards ranging from trench collapses to asbestos and silica. it's time to start counting opioids on this list of potential hazards and finding ways to prevent them from harming LIUNA members and their families."
