What is the Asbestos safe work practice?
Asbestos fibres cause lung disease years after exposure. An asbestos program identifies materials that may contain asbestos, restricts and controls abatement work, and protects workers and their clothing from contamination.
A safe work practice is the written "how we do this job safely" for one task or piece of equipment. This one is written for asbestos and is ready for your company name, so crews, supervisors and clients all read the same rules.
Who needs it: Renovation, demolition, mechanical and insulation contractors working on older buildings.
