This course will deliver content to help candidates recognise asbestos-containing materials, make them aware of where it was used, including steps to take to minimise the risks and discuss the legislation that applies to working with asbestos.
Asbestos is probably the most dangerous building material ever used. Every year thousands of people fall ill and die because of exposure to asbestos and the construction industry widely used it right up until the year 2000. The Control of Asbestos Regulations (CAR) apply to employers, employees, self-employed persons and duty holders and cover all work with asbestos-containing materials.
Regulation 10 of CAR states that every employer must ensure that adequate information, instruction and training is given to employees who are liable to be exposed to asbestos. This includes maintenance workers and others who may come into contact with or disturb asbestos.
As well as informing candidates about the risks of working with asbestos, this course will deliver content to help them recognise asbestos-containing materials, make them aware of where it was used, including steps to take to minimise the risks and discuss the legislation that applies to working with asbestos.
