Air pollution and construction activities create significant health hazards for both workers and nearby communities through dust, particulate matter, and chemical emissions. Construction sites generate substantial amounts of PM10 and PM2.5 particles that can travel considerable distances, affecting air quality in surrounding areas. The combination of heavy machinery, material handling, and demolition activities creates pollution hotspots that pose particular risks to vulnerable populations. Discover the evidence documenting construction-related air pollution and the protective measures needed to safeguard worker and community health.
