New Asbestos Safety Training in 2021 from OHSS Safety Consultants

At OHSS, we’re experienced in all aspects of asbestos removal and disposal consultation and we frequently offer training in accordance with all known asbestos regulations. We’re here to tell you that for 2021 we’re offering Asbestos Awareness and Low Risk Handling training at a time and date to be decided - subject to Covid restrictions.

Whilst the Coronavirus is still causing havoc around the world, asbestos disposal still carries a huge risk to human health for anyone working near it. Let’s take a look at what the training will include.

Venue - Beat Centre Balbriggan
With a course reference number of 23648, this highly successful one-day training course is ideal for those who’s work might bring them in contact with the deadly substance. This includes surveyors, architects, plumbers, electricians, groundworkers and anyone else who may find themselves on a construction or renovation site.

By the end of the course, those attending will understand:

  • The various asbestos types and where they lurk

  • The risk of exposure to asbestos to human health

  • What asbestos surveys are and how to use them

  • What a basic risk assessment is and the techniques that are used

  • How to use PPE safely & effectively

  • How to remove friable asbestos

  • The basic methods used during asbestos removal

  • Air monitoring methods & control limits

  • Why clearance assessments are conducted

Created in accordance with Safety, Health & Welfare at work regulations and the new asbestos abatement and management guidelines from the HSA, our course helps employers to provide the obligatory information and training to their employees on how to act if and when asbestos-containing dust exposure occurs.
