Employees engaged in tree removal work were exposed to skin irritation / carcinogen hazards in that the employer did not provide hazard communication training to inform employees of the hazards associated with the chemicals with which they work. Hazardous chemicals being used or available for use included but were not limited to gasoline, gasoline / oil mix, and hydraulic fluid.
