Test and inspection of industrial premise

[Rockstar94]

I currently work for a very large national company that are very good at H&S awareness and training, before you started work you should of completed your RAMS and part of that would be getting an asbestos register from the client. Get a specialist to remove. Not just dust mask and disposable overall job... I know the H&S stuff is alot of scare tactics but don't take it lightly. I've worked for companies without any asbestos awareness and training and now severely concerned not for myself but my family and kids to come. If I go its no loss to me, but how bout the kids?

You should be OK for working on ships with this qualification then

we have got an asbestos register but its a non invasive one, so dosnt include fuse boards ect, i have done the asbestos awarness course but i thinks that the companies get out clause if anything happens in years to come, the advise given on the course is to damp it down to stop the dust / fibers i dont think it would be a good idea start spraying water in 30 way Bill board LOL, i have been pulling these fuses for years without any mask or anything so have i allready done the damage? long term i think it would be a good idea to get rid of them, as we are with other asbestos in the factory.

Just out of interest, how are you managing to do all this with all that asbestos lying around in the dist. boards?

Here we go again!! The death bell rings to anyone who dares pull a re-wirable fuse!!! :sleep1:

Ha, it does always sound like that but it's a fair point to raise if there are masses of remedials to do and maybe BS3036 boards to be replaced (before the death bell rings).
