Asbestos
Anyone who may be involved in work which could disturb asbestos must be given the information they need to prevent any exposure to asbestos. This is a legal requirement.
All schools should have a Site Specific Asbestos Management Plan. This, together with an Asbestos Record Book should be presented to any contractors and operatives doing work. It should include survey information together with a drawing of the school showing clearly the locations of suspected asbestos and a form to sign stating that they have read and understood the information and now know of any risks.
No one must work on any asbestos containing materials unless the requirements of the Control of Asbestos at Work regulations are complied with.
