Asbestos Management Programmes

Armstrong York is widely recognised as one of Europe’s leading environmental consultants specialising in asbestos project management.

The Government introduced the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 (CAR 2012) in direct response to the current mortality rates associated with asbestos exposure and to fulfil its commitments under European Law. One of the key aspects of the legislation is to reduce the future exposure through the management of asbestos in non-domestic premises.

If you have already had Asbestos Surveys conducted you should have key information available such as a Material Hazard Assessment, which provides a basic indication of how liable an asbestos-containing material (ACM) is to release airborne fibre. It is then up to the duty holder to determine the specific risk that each ACM poses based on the level of occupation in the area where it was found, and then to produce an Asbestos Management Plan.

It is therefore very important to understand that the asbestos survey report you have commissioned is only the beginning of your Asbestos Management duty; not the end of it.

It is understandable that many duty holders need further assistance in putting together and maintaining a procedure, required by law, that helps protect all people that enter their building from breathing asbestos dust. With our wealth of experience Armstrong York can take away that burden and produce and manage a comprehensive Asbestos Management Plan.
