Asbestos Management Upgrade

Description

Asbestos Management Upgrade 

The Asbestos Management Upgrade from Workplace Learning helps you meet the requirements of the Health and Safety at Work (Asbestos) Regulations 2016 that places a duty on businesses to have asbestos management plans in place for their buildings and workplaces where asbestos is likely to be found.

An asbestos management plan sets out where any identified asbestos or asbestos containing material is and how it will be managed.

An asbestos management plan must include information about:

• where your identified asbestos is located – in what wall, window etc
• how you plan to manage the asbestos risks if any exists (eg remove it, encapsulate it with a false wall or paint, leave it alone as it is in good condition, etc)
• what procedures you will follow for when work is to be undertaken that may disturb the asbestos or asbestos containing material
• how you will record incidents or emergencies involving asbestos
• a timetable for managing asbestos exposure  risks (eg priorities and dates for removal, reviews, circumstances and activities that could affect the timing of action) – which should be reviewed in six months, or after an incident or emergency
• procedures, including a timetable for reviewing and  (if necessary) revising the asbestos management plan and asbestos documentation (note at a minimum this MUST be every five years).

There is no charge or obligation for our first catch-up with you to discuss your needs.
