If you’ve previously had an asbestos survey conducted, you should have critical information on hand such as a Material Hazard Assessment, which provides a clear indication of how probable an asbestos containing material (ACM) is to releasing airborne fibres.
It is then down to the duty holder to determine the direct risk that each asbestos containing material (ACM) poses based on the level of use 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), continual surveillance post asbestos survey is required at regular intervals. Any ACM discovered or suspected ACM will need to be inspected frequently to ensure that it has not worsened or sustained damaged. As a minimum, ACMs should be checked every six to twelve months.
Asbestos analysis must form part of every asbestos inspection survey, no matter what type of premises is concerned.
All dubious materials should be tested 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 generally ready for oversight within 48 hours with a certificate of analysis detailing the types of asbestos present within the sample material tested.
