Asbestos Surveys, Risk Assessments and Management Plans

What You Need To Do?

The Control of Asbestos Regulations 2006 considers the legal duty to manage Asbestos in a premises. If you own, occupy or manage a premises, you have a legal duty to manage this risk. Under the 2002 Control of Asbestos at Work Regulations, this process should have been completed by 21st May 2004.

An Asbestos Survey identifies Asbestos in the workplace. As the duty holder you must be aware of the location, quantity and condition of Asbestos Containing Materials or ACM's in your premises ? 

Asbestos Surveys locate, inspect and determine the types of Asbestos present in a building. Each ASAP Asbestos Survey is driven by relevant, credible risk management strategies.

How Can We Help?

In line with the HSE's MDHS 100 methodology ASAP offer three types of Asbestos Survey:

Type 1 Asbestos Survey - location and assessment or presumptive survey.

Type 2 Asbestos Survey - standard sampling, identification and assessment survey.

Type 3 Asbestos Survey - full access sampling and identification survey.

ASAP Asbestos Survey Reports are presented in a simple, upgradeable format.

An Asbestos Survey is a Material Risk Assessment calculated by a Material Algorithm. In simple terms, what have you got, where is it, what condition is it in and how much is there?

Once the Asbestos Survey Report is complete, in locations where Asbestos has been found a second Positional Algorithm or People Risk Assessment is required.

The Material and Positional Algorithms are combined into an Asbestos Management Plan which puts in place controls to manage the Asbestos risk professionally.
