Our Online Self-Paced Asbestos Awareness Training course gives workers and supervisors the knowledge they need to identify and work safely with asbestos or asbestos containing material. The purpose of awareness training is to ensure workers understand where asbestos might be found and what steps to take to stay safe.
What type of workers need asbestos awareness training?
- The Asbestos Awareness course is aimed at personnel who may be required to remove small amounts of asbestos (under 10m2) as part of their job role.
- Workers who enter ceiling cavities (such as insulation installers; pest spray operators; air-conditioning installers; maintenance and repair workers; solar panel providers)
- Electricians; plumbers; carpenters and joiners; plasterers; painters and decorators; gas fitters; demolition workers; floor finishers
- Emergency services workers
- Building and construction workers
