SuperSkills Asbestos Awareness for Architects and Designers Training covers all the issues you need to know when dealing with Asbestos in buildings.
In addition, information relevant to architects and designers working with buildings that may contain asbestos is included – especially the legislation governing asbestos in work and the specific responsibilities of architects and designers.
Being aware of the products that are likely to contain asbestos and the risks associated with them gives workers and supervisors the information they need to avoid work that may disturb 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 it was widely used by the construction industry 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.
SuperSkills Asbestos Awareness Training For Architects & Designers is for anyone planning projects where asbestos may be disturbed.
Being aware of the products that are likely to contain asbestos and the risks associated with them gives workers and supervisors the information they need to avoid work that may disturb asbestos and create risks.
