The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) is refusing to tighten the exposure standard for lung-shredding silica dust. Hundreds could be dying each year as a result. The time for action is long overdue. Read our silica evidence file here: hazards.org/dust

We are still being killed at work by silica - a hazard recognised since antiquity. But the industry has now found a way to make it worse, so it kills faster and younger - with hyperfine dusts in 'engineered stone - @bwiglobal bwint.org/cms/bwi-global…

Julia Waters's address to Reading Borough Council yesterday :"Staying silent is dangerous. Refusing to ask uncomfortable questions or take preemptive action is dangerous". A message that also needs to be heard by the regulator responsible for preventing workplace deaths.Health and Safety Executive
