There is plenty of evidence to support this.
Very few people wear masks for extended periods - whole shifts - many of those that do - for instance those tasked with tank cleaning for instance - have highly technical and expensive apparatus designed to ameliorate the known hazards and will be subject to a health and safety case and regime.
Many medical experts have expressed grave concerns over extended mask wearing, the risk of Hypoxia being one of them - deliberately putting people operating dangerous machinery such as forklifts in danger of Hypoxia is utterly reckless. Prolonged Hypoxia is associated with low levels of oxygen, it is known that cancer cells grow best in a micro-environment low in oxygen.
Studies have also shown that hypoxia inhibits immune cells used to fight viral infections.
Also scaring the elderly in particular into doing themselves harm by prolonged wearing of masks is verging on the criminal.
You have stated twice that there is evidence that wearing a mask is harmful to health but have not cited any.
RPE (Respiratory Protective Equipment) is widely used in many workplaces and is mandatory in many cases depending on the hazard.
Unless you have an existing breathing issue, used correctly RPE is not, in any way, harmful to health. Hypoxia is simply not caused by a mask itself - read the HSE guidance on RPE, you will find no reference to hypoxia being a hazard caused by the wearing of RPE
HSE recommend do that non-assisted RPE masks are not worn continuously for more than one hour at a time before a break is taken (this is largely for user comfort)
This is for masks that need a face-seal (eg FFP1-3) lightweight surgical masks are not included (and aren't generally considered as RPE anyway) Cloth face coverings generally have a fit similar to surgical masks and do not seal to the face
You mentioned tank cleaning - that's normally done with portable or line-fed breathing apparatus as the environment is often oxygen deficient (or contaminated) so mask-type RPE is not suitable
