The results below are from an IBEW SCT-6 Member who works in the underground in the Boston area. These Blood Lead Level (BLL) test results were shared so that other Members who may have been, or continue to be, exposed to Lead can view to educated yourselves. Members who work on or around Lead are encouraged to get themselves tested. You can request Blood Lead Level tests that will be paid for by Verizon. Please contact your Manager for more information and to begin the process. Safety & Health is supposed to be everyone’s concern… It’s each individual Member’s choice to decide if they want to request testing as it is not mandatory. Knowledge is power…if you want to know how the workplace may have impacted you, you have the power to do so. If you have any questions please contact the Local Union Office at 413-734-0863.

Fraternally,

John D. Rowley Sr.

Business Manager
