No disturbance such as drilling, breaking or cutting etc shall be carried out to any material suspected of containing asbestos fibres. Any suspicious material shall be reported to the site or building manager immediately. A Management Survey should always be made available. Its purpose is to locate, as far as reasonably practicable, the presence and extent of any suspected Asbestos Containing Materials (ACMs) in the building which could be damaged or disturbed during normal occupancy, including foreseeable maintenance and installation, and to assess their condition prior to starting work. Refurbishment and demolition surveys should be made available where refurbishment work or other work involving disturbing the fabric of the building is carried out. Combat Pest Control Ltd policy is that we will not generally work on asbestos products. Under limited circumstances and when authorised, Combat Pest Control Ltd employees, with an appropriate current training certificate, will be allowed to work on non-licensed asbestos works as prescribed by the HSE. This type of work will be risk assessed separately from other tasks. Notifiable non-licensed work (NNLW) must be notified to the HSE before commencement of work. A copy of the RAMS must be signed by all employees when working with asbestos. Combat Pest Control Ltd will record all projects involving NNLW and keep records of employee health checks for those working on NNLW, this must be carried out prior to the start of work and renewed on a 3 year cycle.
