The American Journal of Industrial Medicine published findings from BTMed’s researchers, “Mortality of Older Construction and Craft Workers Employed at Department of Energy Nuclear Sites: Follow-up Through 2016”. Findings showed that DOE construction workers were at significant risk for diseases associated with occupational exposures, including all cancers. The study highlights the importance of continued medical screening and early lung cancer detection for the health and welfare of workers.
