7 deadly plastics

Might wish to review this ditty. We worked with some of these at American Can--American National Can and Silgan. I suspect Crown-Cork folks also handled some of this stuff.

USW workers and folks in manufacturing might wish to review this with members.

note: OSHA does poor job of regulations in the chemical industry. OSHA seems to go by the body count, not the dangers.

Hint: get copies of Material Data Safety Sheets and keep copy--at union hall and make copy for self. It is amazing how some of this stuff gets lost.

more bpa bad news

This snip is from the Bill Moyer's Journal on BPA. Again, can workers at 083 (American Can, American National Can and Silgan containers) in St. Louis, Missouri were exposed.

How do I know? I was safety-chair and on the safety committee at 083 for a decade. In fact, I was the last labor chair of Safety committee. I read thru the safety-material data sheets. I suggest current can workers at Silgan Containers do the same.

Those in the USW (united steelworkers) might wish to review with folks the "potential" dangers of BPA.

potential can danger BPA

these vids show some potential dangers from food packaging. We used this chemical at American Can--American National and Silgan at the 083 plant. Quite possible use at Continental/Crown Cork.

I am starting at vid two of this interview.
