Risk assessment

All work with asbestos

A suitable and sufficient risk assessment should include full details of the work to be undertaken and how long the work is expected to take. It should include:

• details of the type and quantity of the asbestos
• details of the expected level of exposure
• details of the controls to be used to reduce exposure eg use of local exhaust ventilation, controlled wetting, adequate PPE / RPE use of enclosures
• decontamination procedures for tools, equipment and PPE
• details on how asbestos waste will be managed
• emergency procedures

The findings of the assessment should be communicated to employees, and anybody else who could be affected.  A copy of the risk assessment must be available on site.
