Nah. Even labour ready crack heads ain’t that dumb.

When we were doing an abatement I hired a temp guy to simply toss the drywall bags into the dumpster. The guy tripped when he saw how we were decked out and phoned the labour company and they forced us to sign off on a half day when buddy was just whining about it. There was nothing dangerous about it but the temp labour agencies definitely train people to avoid situations like being stuck in an abatement

From what I’ve seen it looks way more like just exploiting TFW and friends/family who have no clue what they are getting into.

For any abatement you should have a full PAPR respirator, it’s a fully powered positive pressure full enclosed respirator, the 3M ones run about $1000 a pop with a battery. I’ve never once seen anyone doing an abatement actually wearing these
