Cork City Council – Asbestos Management
The client had houses throughout the city. Many of these were old and may have had asbestos-containing materials. Our brief was to find out if this was the case, and if so, remove the materials safely.
Steps taken:
- Survey
- Procurement
- Risk assessment
- Staff briefings
Solution:
Having successfully tendered for the project, we developed an asbestos management plan – and trained engineering and general staff in asbestos management. We surveyed the vacant houses before refurbishment, and survey results were made available to the client in real time using our web management software.
Tangible benefits:
Since OHSS is accredited, our client was assured that the work was carried out to the highest standards, and that all test results would stand up to scrutiny. We had the experience to come up with a cost-effective solution, and to reassure anxious employees.
