Asbestos Awareness

Asbestos is a term for a group of minerals made of microscopic fibres. If you breathe in these fibres, they can damage your lungs.

Asbestos awareness training helps workers who handle asbestos to understand the risks associated with the material so that they can avoid work that may disturb asbestos and cause danger.

Under the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health 2002 (COSHH) regulations, employers have a legal duty to provide adequate control of employees’ exposure to harmful substances in the workplace.
