Employers and property owners will soon be required by law to ‘manage’
asbestos in premises to minimise the risk of exposure to workers and occupants.
This means that premises will have to be inspected or surveyed for the presence of asbestos.
The recent HSE publication HSG 264 Asbestos: The Survey Guide sets the criteria for asbestos surveys. One of
the requirements of HSG 264 is that people carrying out surveys MUST be
suitably trained. The only course mentioned in HSG 264 is the British Occupational
Hygiene Society’s Proficiency Certificate 402.
Following successful completion of this course attendees should be able to
effectively undertake an asbestos survey, collect bulk samples for analysis,
carry out a material assessment and produce information to assist the employer
formulate an asbestos management plan.
