Symptoms and Results of Perchlorate Poisoning

Perchlorates can cause a wide variety of illnesses and are thought to be particularly dangerous to women of childbearing age. They are also thought to have a harmful effect to the thyroid gland.

If you suspect that you may have been exposed to Perchlorates, you should seek medical advice immediately. Simple tests will be able to establish if you have been affected by the Perchlorates.

Exposure to Perchlorates at Work or in the Environment

Perchlorates can occur naturally in the environment and are also used within the manufacturing industry within explosives, airbags, rocket fuel, fireworks and fertilisers.

A person may be exposed to Perchlorates whilst at work if they have not been issued with the necessary protective clothing and members of the public could be exposed to it due to a spillage or inadequate safety measures during disposal/incineration.

There are detailed regulations in place which are designed to protect all workers from exposure to chemicals and other substances in the workplace and these are called “The Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations” or COSHH for short. If a person believes they have been harmed by an exposure to Perchlorates at work or in the environment, then they may be entitled to make a personal injury compensation claim.
