In the UK, asbestos is responsible for, and contributes to, over 5000 deaths every year. Prior to being banned, asbestos was widely used as a construction material within commercial and domestic buildings including schools. Failure to comply with the Control of Asbestos Regulations (2012) is a criminal offence therefore all educational settings must have a good working knowledge of the dangers asbestos presents and how to manage compliance with the regulations on site.
By building a sound working knowledge of statutory requirements, this course focuses on the practical aspects of asbestos management and how legal duties can be met without risk to health.
