51 Asbestos Awareness courses

Who is this course for? This basic working with Asbestos safety training course is specifically designed for anyone who may be at risk from coming into contact with asbestos during the course of their work and which involves them using all necessary precautions and equipment to avoid working with asbestos containing materials [ACM]. IMPORTANT: This course does not train you to carry out any unlicensed, unlicensed notifiable work or licensed work on asbestos. You will need specific training for this. This course can also benefit the supervisor/manager responsible for those working in the construction and maintenance industry and looking for a basic understanding to better appreciate when to “stop the job” if suspected ACM’s are found. What are the objectives of the course? The aim of this course is to keep it simple and real, whilst all the key subject areas are covered of how to avoid working with asbestos. Course Content Different types of Asbestos Asbestos related diseases Asbestos product identification Where Asbestos can be found in premises Application legislation & Asbestos management The Asbestos register How to avoid exposure to ACMs Emergency procedures following exposure to ACMs

If you have no intention of removing asbestos but work on buildings built or refurbished before the year 2000, asbestos could be present. You will need awareness training so you know how to avoid the risks. Asbestos awareness training should be given to employees whose work could foreseeably disturb the fabric of a building and expose them to asbestos or who supervise or influence the work. In particular, it should be given to those workers in the refurbishment, maintenance and allied trades where it is foreseeable that ACMs may become exposed during their work.

Asbestos Awareness training is a legal requirement for any worker who may encounter asbestos during their work. Modules will provide relevant and detailed knowledge about the dangers of asbestos, the products that contain asbestos, what it looks like, where it may have been used and the practical steps that can be taken to reduce their risk of exposure. In addition to common mandatory modules, learners will also choose a selection of modules relevant to their occupational pathway.
