Before You Start Work
Ask the client or employer for the section of the asbestos register that relates to the area in which you propose to work.
Is the asbestos register available for inspection?
An inspection of the work area MUST be carried out before beginning work, with findings confirmed in writing. Liaise with client.
Does the register show any asbestos materials in or near the work area?
Does the proposed work make contact with the material OR could dust from the material be released accidentally?
Confirm your decisions with the client/employer before starting work.
Stop work & refer to client/employer
