Why do I need a Seconded Asbestos Manager?

Whilst Asbestos Management is a top priority for the majority of Health and Safety and facilities managers, many either don’t have the capital to recruit a full-time professional in-house manager and/or maintain their skills and knowledge or may not have the capacity to divert valuable resources to non-core activities.

Whilst this may be the case, it is still a legal requirement to be able to demonstrate that you are compliant with CAR 2012 and failure to comply with current UK legislation can result in enforcement action from the relevant authority and potential civil claims.

What are my responsibilities?

Under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, it is the responsibility of the duty holder to manage asbestos in non-domestic premises, and provide information on where any asbestos is in the building and what condition it is in. Employers must ensure a suitable & sufficient assessment has been undertaken (i.e. asbestos type, matrix, location and condition), with the aim to prevent or reduce potential exposures to asbestos and reduce any risks to the lowest practicable level.

We offer a flexible outsourcing solution to ensure that you have all the support you need, at a fraction of the cost of directly employing asbestos managers. We are also able to work remotely, resulting in even further cost savings for you.
