More info

Work with benzene is subject to the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH) Regulations 1999. It is classified as a carcinogen and has been assigned a 'skin' notation, indicating the possibility of significant skin absorption.

Benzene can cause serious health problems. Immediate effects of high inhalation exposure can include headache, tiredness, nausea and dizziness and unconsciousness may occur if exposure is very high. Long-term exposure to benzene can result in serious blood disorders such as anaemia and leukaemia.

You might be exposed to benzene at work in the following industries:

  • Oil refineries
  • Chemical and petrochemical plants including some offshore installations
  • Motor vehicle repair workshops

Control of Substances Hazardous to Health – COSHH

Using chemicals or other hazardous substances at work can put people's health at risk. So the law requires employers to control exposure to hazardous substances to prevent ill health.

COSHH Regulations are designed to protect all workers from exposure to chemicals and other substances in the workplace. If you believe you have been exposed to a hazardous substance at work which has caused you to develop asthma, then you may be entitled to make a personal injury compensation claim.
