If you’ve already had an asbestos survey conducted, you should have crucial information on hand such as a Material Hazard Assessment, which outlines a clear demonstration of how liable an asbestos containing material (ACM) is to discharging airborne fibres.
It is then up to the duty holder to calculate the specific danger that each asbestos containing material (ACM) poses based on the level of occupation in the area where it was found, and then to produce an Asbestos Management Plan.
As part of the proceeding management of asbestos containing materials (ACMs), continual monitoring post asbestos survey is required at regular intervals. Any ACM found or probable ACM will need to be inspected frequently to check that it has not deteriorated or sustained breakages. 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 kind of property is concerned.
All dubious materials should be sampled by a fully licensed asbestos surveyor, and then carefully removed to be taken away for review using microscopy techniques at a UKAS accredited laboratory.
