Diesel exhaust is a
Group 1 carcinogen
– the same classification as asbestos. There is no safe level of exposure.
Aviation firefighters live and work inside the source. Every shift is an exposure event.
Airservices’ own risk matrix rates this
Extreme
– demanding immediate CEO-level action.
91 cancer claims accepted since 2011. Members have died.
The fix exists. Local exhaust ventilation (LEV) systems are proven, available, and already in use elsewhere.
Airservices is choosing not to install them.
