Asbestos Training – Who needs it?
All workers who are liable to disturb asbestos during their normal work should be trained so that they can recognise asbestos containing materials and know what to do if they come across them. The training needs to be appropriate for the work and the roles undertaken by individuals. There are three types of asbestos training:
- Awareness training
- Training for work with asbestos that does not require a licence from HSE
- Training for asbestos work that does require a licence from HSE.
