What should I do if I get silicosis? That lawyer, help me!

This kind of work must be carried out in accordance with safety regulations and personal protection. If you don't follow the labor safety protection measures, you will easily get occupational diseases, and silicosis is one of them.

You can go back to your company to apply for occupational disease examination and appraisal. If your company doesn't agree, you can go to legal occupational disease appraisal institutions and big hospitals in big cities for examination. If it's not that serious, be sure to follow the operating rules. If it is serious, you can ask the unit to stop work according to the documents issued by the hospital or appraisal institution, and apply for compensation according to law.

Let's make it clear here: if your unit has standardized safety protection measures and appliances, but you don't protect yourself as required, that unit may not be responsible for this matter and will not compensate you. If your company doesn't have safety protection measures and appliances, you can claim compensation. Otherwise, you can sue the unit.

Keep all evidence during work and prepare for adverse events.
