How is asbestosis usually prevented in workplace settings?

Through psychological counseling

Using wet processes and local exhaust ventilation

Therefore, psychological counseling (option A), providing bottled water (option C), and annual physical examination (option D) are unrelated and insufficient methods for preventing asbestosis. The most effective way to prevent asbestosis in workplace settings is to use wet processes and local exhaust ventilation which can reduce the number of airborne asbestos particles and minimize the risk of inhalation (option B).
