Asbestos Awareness Training Online
Asbestos kills about 5000 workers each year. Few people realise that most buildings constructed before the turn of the millennium will have asbestos in their fabric. This is safe, until it is disturbed by alterations, and if fibres are breathed into airwaves, they can lodge there for many years, causing irritation and eventually cancer.
Everyone working in older buildings need to understand the dangers posed by asbestos and how to deal with its presence. Our Asbestos Awareness Training course, accredited by IOSH (Institute of Occupational Safety & Health) carries one of the most respected brands in health and safety world wide.
It is your badge of quality and will meet all audit requirements, apart from helping to ensure the safety of your staff.
