This course is beneficial to dutyholders (building owners, those responsible for premises through a contract or tenancy, or those with control of a building), employers who carry out demolition, maintenance or repair, employers who carry out work which is liable to expose employees to asbestos, and anyone who works in these types of trades.
This asbestos course is especially suitable for anyone who works in professions such as:
Heating and ventilation engineers.
Demolition workers.
Carpenters, joiners and construction workers.
Plumbers.
Roofing contractors.
Painters, decorators and plasterers.
Fire and burglar alarm installers.
Shopfitters.
Gasfitters.

Note, workers who plan to carry out work that will disturb asbestos require a higher level of training which is not supplied by this course. This training does not allow you to work with asbestos-containing materials. If this is the level of training you need, then it's necessary to attend a course with practical demonstrations of control measures and personal protective equipment."
