BOHS P405 Managing Asbestos in Buildings (Refresher)


Aim of the course

Due to laws changing in 1999, all Asbestos importation, supply and use is banned in the UK. But for buildings that were built before 1999, that still contain Asbestos Containing Materials (ACM’s), if any work is needed to be done, and there is a risk the asbestos fibres will be disturbed, steps need to be taken and the ACM’s need to be managed effectively and safely.

Due to the risk that disturbed Asbestos fibres can cause, this 1-day course is designed to  refresh the knowledge attained by delegates in their original P405 course to enable them to effectively manage the risks of asbestos in their buildings.
