Memorandum from an industrial hygienist responding to Dr. Sexton's request for an opinion on medical examinations for construction craftsworkers who might have been exposed to asbestos and who were scheduled for termination in a workforce reduction. It summarizes the OSHA asbestos standard (respirators, termination medical exams, Program Directive 300-16), gives his interpretation of who requires exams, and asks the Law Department to confirm or correct it. Table 1 of construction-area asbestos monitoring results since May 1978 is attached.
