WNYCOSH and allies across the state successfully lobbied for NYS Toxic Torts Legislation, that allowed claimants to pursue expired claims for hazardous materials like asbestos.
WNYCOSH organized a consortium of scientific, health, labor and educational institutions (Union Health Care Coop, SUNYAB Toxicology Research Ctr., Chemical Hazard Information Program-NYSSILR Cornell and UAW Region 9) to provide training and technical assistance to employees and employers in WNY, the Workers’ Occupational Health Consortium (WOHC).
