Webinar on Flavoring Chemicals
Save the Date.
Free webinar on chemical hazards in the food industry
October 13 at Noon ET
Attorneys Anne McGinness Kearse and Scott Hall of Motley Rice are helping workers learn more about the potential dangers of chemical flavorings. They also represent workers who may have developed diseases as a result of harmful exposure. They will discuss how workers who work in facilities that process coffee, candy, microwave popcorn, and other products can be exposed to flavoring chemicals linked to dangerous lung diseases.
Robert Harrison, MD, MPH, director of the University of California, San Francisco Occupational Health Services and director of the worker tracking investigation program for the California Department of Public Health will discuss the medical issues involved in flavoring exposures and his involvement in the development of California’s regulations for flavoring chemicals.
Mark Nicas, PhD, MPH, CIH, is an adjunct professor and director of the Industrial Hygiene Program in the Department of Environmental Health Sciences at the University of California Berkeley. He will discuss some of the specific job tasks and conditions that expose workers to flavoring chemicals.
Learn the risks and how workers can protect themselves on the job.
