Seasonal Safety Spotlight
As we step into spring, it’s an ideal time to ensure your buildings remain safe and compliant. The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) has launched the Asbestos – Your Duty campaign, aimed at raising awareness among those responsible for managing asbestos in buildings.
Asbestos – Your Duty Campaign
If you own, manage, or maintain a building, you may have a legal duty to manage asbestos risks. Duty holders include:
Why is This Important?
Asbestos remains a significant health risk, and failing to manage it properly can lead to serious legal and financial consequences. The duty holder is required to:
Identify and assess asbestos risks within the premises.
Maintain an up-to-date asbestos management plan.
Ensure safe handling and necessary removal by qualified professionals.
Taking Action
HSE provides detailed guidance on fulfilling your responsibilities, including identifying asbestos, assessing risks, and implementing effective management strategies. Regular inspections and adherence to regulations can prevent unnecessary exposure and ensure the safety of occupants
