There are currently over 5,000 asbestos-related disease deaths per year, including mesothelioma, lung cancer, and asbestosis.
Asbestos training is for anyone who may come into contact with various kinds of asbestos products during normal work practices.
The level of asbestos exposure should reflect the level of training that is undertaken.
Almost every role in construction can come into contact with asbestos but below are some common job roles that may come into contact with asbestos:
The basic level of formal asbestos training is not mandatory; however, for anyone who may encounter asbestos, employers must ensure they are properly educated. Those without proper asbestos training should avoid work that could involve asbestos.
Asbestos training covers various topics to help candidates understand materials that may contain asbestos. Candidates are also given information on how to safely dispose of asbestos-related products and how to keep themselves safe from asbestos fibres.
