Asbestos consultancy, Global Environmental, has published a Briefing Document which explains, in layman’s terms, the responsibilities Property/Asset Managers have regarding asbestos and how to discharge them.
The easy-to-digest summary document, which can be read in just 2 minutes, explains who is responsible for managing asbestos containing materials that are present in non-domestic premises.
The guidance also lists the junctures in a property’s lifecycle where information about asbestos needs to be obtained/presented and when remediation might be required.
The document also explains the different types of asbestos survey, the circumstances when each is needed and how they should be procured.
