If you’ve already had an asbestos survey carried out, you should have critical information on hand such as a Material Hazard Assessment, which provides a clear indication of how liable an asbestos containing material (ACM) is to releasing airborne fibres.
It is then down to the duty holder to determine the specific risk that each asbestos containing material (ACM) poses based on the level of occupation in the area where it was discovered, and then to present an Asbestos Management Plan.
As part of the ongoing management of asbestos containing materials (ACMs), constant monitoring post asbestos survey is necessary at regular intervals. Any ACM found or probable ACM will need to be inspected periodically to check that it has not worsened or sustained damaged. As a minimum, ACMs should be inspected every six to twelve months.
Asbestos analysis must form part of every asbestos inspection survey, no matter what type of property is concerned.
All dubious materials should be sampled by a fully accredited asbestos surveyor, and then carefully extracted to be taken away for review using microscopy techniques at a UKAS accredited laboratory.
Under normal circumstances, asbestos test results are usually ready for review within 48 hours with a certificate of analysis outlining the types of asbestos present within the sample material tested.
