| Abstract |
This qualitative study on asbestos-related risks was based on a survey carried out among workers of asbestos-removal construction sites. The method involving in-depth interviews enabled collecting information on the perception of occupational hazards in asbestos removal work and workers behaviour in relation to both personal and collective protective equipment. The strenuousness of this activity and the living conditions of these "mobile" workers are also discussed. |
