    Over 40,000 Work-Related Cancer Cases Reported Across EU in Past Decade BRUSSELS — December 10, 2025 More than 40,000 cases of occupational cancers were recorded across the European Union between 2013 and 2023, according to new data released by Eurostat. The figures show that 3,500 cases were acknowledged in 2023, an increase of 191 compared to 2022. Occupational cancers are typically linked to long-term exposure to carcinogenic substances in the workplace, with many cases appearing decades after initial exposure. 📊 Trends and Impact: Annual cases in 2020 (3,094), 2021 (3,258), and 2022 (3,309) were below the 2013–2019 average of 3,909 per year. Analysts suggest the decline may reflect the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on working environments and healthcare services. 🔎 Breakdown by Cancer Type (2013–2023): Lung cancer: 16,499 cases. Mesothelioma: 16,469 cases (linked to asbestos exposure). Bladder cancer: 2,696 cases. Together, lung cancer and mesothelioma accounted for more than 80% of all occupational cancers reported. 💬 Expert Warnings: Health experts stress that the data underscores the long-term risks of hazardous working conditions and highlight the urgent need for strict occupational safety measures to protect workers from carcinogenic exposures.
