WHY ASBESTOS IS DANGEROUS

Asbestos is friable so if it is disturbed microscopic asbestos fibres are released into the air that can then be easily inhaled into our lungs.  Once fibres are in our lungs they remain and over time, diseases can develop.

Even a small level of asbestos exposure increases the chance of developing an asbestos-related disease.

3 LEVELS OF ASBESTOS TRAINING

There are three levels of asbestos training defined by the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. These are:

  1. Asbestos awareness (Category A)
  2. Non-licensable work with asbestos (Category B)
  3. Licensable work with asbestos (Category C)

Category A or CAT A Asbestos courses, like this one are for staff who are liable to be exposed to asbestos in the course of their work.  These staff are required to avoid any work that may disturb asbestos containing materials (ACMs).
