Note: the information covered in this course is presented at an awareness level for anyone who needs to understand what asbestos is and what is required in law.

Anyone who may be exposed to asbestos, as well as line managers with responsibility for such people. 

Asbestos is an extremely hazardous substance that can cause serious ill-health to anyone who disturbs or damages it. For this reason, all workers who may come across asbestos or asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) must be trained so that they can work safely. This includes work with potential ACMs, accidental discovery of asbestos, and accidental damage to asbestos and ACMs.
