Investigation Summary
On October 1, 2005, an employee, an asbestos worker, suffered a heat illness after removing a coal tar pitch roof over two days while wearing a Tyvek suit and full face respirator in 90 plus degree Fahrenheit heat and direct sunlight. He cramped up and vomited during the last day of removal but did not inform his supervisor. He went home and suffered cramps, nausea, and vomiting for a day before going to a hospital, where he was admitted and treated for heat related illness and associated medical complications for three days.
