Empower architects with crucial knowledge through our Asbestos Awareness for Architects Training Course. Understand the risks, regulations, and safe practices associated with asbestos in construction.
Why Asbestos Awareness Course right for you?
According to Regulation 10 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations (CAR), every employer must guarantee that personnel who are most likely to be exposed to asbestos get proper information, instruction, and training. Every employer, employee, self-employed person, and duty bearer has a responsibility to follow this legislation, which applies to all work with asbestos-containing materials.
This Asbestos Awareness for Architects training course will generate awareness about the properties and risks of asbestos exposure and educate you with the knowledge and skills to minimise such risks. This course will also equip you with knowledge about the related legislation that applies to working with asbestos.
Asbestos is a dangerous substance that can create major health problems for anyone who disturbs or damages it. It was widely used in a range of construction materials up until the year 2000, including flooring, walls, ceilings, roofs, heating systems, and equipment. In the UK, the number of asbestos-related deaths scales at around 5,000 deaths per year, as estimated by the Health and Safety Executive. Therefore, creating awareness about asbestos among architects and designers will significantly scale down the number of deaths it causes by educating them on the essentials of identifying the work that may disturb asbestos.
Upon successful completion of this Asbestos Awareness for Architects training course, you will be able to identify the materials that contain asbestos and know how to adapt safety measures when dealing with such materials.
