Reasons to remove and dispose of asbestos

• If you don't manage asbestos in your premises, you could be putting your employees' and other peoples' health at risk.
• Exposure to asbestos occurs when you or others disturb it, releasing fibres into the air we breathe.
• Asbestos in good condition should be left in place and managed.
• Disposal & removal of asbestos at work requires a licence, but some minor work on asbestos can be done without a licence if the correct precautions are followed.
• Regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos at Work Regulations is a duty to manage, not a duty to survey.
• You don't always have to do a survey, but you do have to manage your asbestos-containing materials (ACMs).
• A bad asbestos survey is worse than not carrying out a asbestos survey.
• Managing asbestos means maintaining your (ACMs) in good condition to protect two groups of people:
  - those who work on the fabric of the building e.g. electricians, plumbers etc; and
  - those who work in the building (e.g. plant and office workers, cleaners etc) who may come into contact or work near damaged or deteriorated ACMs.
• Damaged or deteriorated ACMs should be repaired, removed or isolated until remedial action can be taken.
• Your Asbestos Management Plan:
• - Is your way of ensuring that your employees or others do not disturb your ACMs;
• - Can take many forms and need not be complex, but it does need to be effective.

Asbestos regulations
