Commercial Asbestos Removal

We assist all commercial organisations to meet their duties under asbestos law, whilst also protecting everybody from the life-threatening diseases associated with asbestos.

Duty of care to manage asbestos

Under regulation 4 of CAR 2012 (Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012), commercial property owners have a duty and responsibility to manage asbestos. The HSE (Health & Safety Executive) supports and enforces this legislation. They have published guidance on their “The duty to manage asbestos” page, where they state:

“

The duty to manage asbestos is directed at those who manage non-domestic premises: the people with responsibility for protecting others who work in such premises, or use them in other ways, from the risks to ill-health that exposure to asbestos causes.

”

An overview summary of the duty includes:

1. taking steps to identify asbestos-containing materials in non-domestic premises
2. keep an up to date record of locations and conditions of ACMs (asbestos-containing materials)
3. assess the risk of anyone being exposed to asbestos fibres
4. prepare an asbestos management plan to manage asbestos risks
5. take steps to put the plan into action
6. ongoing reviewing and monitoring of the plan with updates where circumstances change
7. report on the location and condition ACMs to people who may work on or disturb them
