Les salariés exposés aux PFAS au quotidien sont les premiers touchés par ces dangereux polluants éternels. Une proposition de loi pourrait les interdire dans certains produits.
The article discusses how workers exposed to PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) face significant health risks due to their widespread presence in various products and environments. PFAS, known as "eternal pollutants," are found in cosmetics, clothing, medical implants, paints, cleaning products, carpets, air, soil, water, food, and even human bodies. A proposed law aims to ban PFAS in certain consumer products by 2026, but experts, unions, and associations warn of the urgent need to address the health risks these chemicals pose, particularly for workers who handle them daily. The article highlights that while PFAS are often discussed in terms of environmental health, their impact on workplace health is equally critical.
