About Duty to Manage Asbestos Training

The course is designed for those who must manage non-domestic premises. These duty holders are responsible for protecting anyone on the work premises from the potential risks of asbestos exposure.

The key purpose of this course is to train the users with adequate knowledge, skills and competence to work safely and proficiently.

Why Is IATP Asbestos Duty to Manage Training Important? 

Asbestos, commonly found in any building constructed before 2000, is responsible for around 5,000 deaths annually. In 2022, there were 2,257 deaths from mesothelioma in the UK, a slight decrease from the previous year. Additionally, there were 493 reported deaths from asbestosis.

Asbestos exposure of employees can lead companies to legal and financial claims. Therefore, employers must appoint responsible persons to protect anyone on the work premises from the risk of exposure.

An adequate asbestos duty to manage training can help meet legal requirements and reduce the health risks associated with asbestos exposure.
