Asbestos is arguably the most perilous building material ever utilised. Each year, thousands of individuals suffer from illness and lose their lives due to asbestos exposure. Surprisingly, the construction industry continued to employ it until the year 2000.
The Control of Asbestos Regulations (CAR) pertain to employers, employees, self-employed individuals, and duty holders, encompassing all activities involving asbestos-containing materials. Regulation 10 of CAR mandates that every employer must ensure that employees who may encounter asbestos receive adequate information, instruction, and training. This includes maintenance workers and others who may come into contact with or disturb asbestos.
This Asbestos Awareness E-Learning Course not only educates participants about the hazards associated with working with asbestos but also equips them with the knowledge to identify asbestos-containing materials, familiarise themselves with its common applications, and implement measures to minimise risks.
