Introduction

Although asbestos has been officially banned, still we could observe its presence of it in many houses and workplaces all over the world that have been built before the 1990s. As long as the material is undisturbed and in good shape, it doesn’t release any harmful fibers. But, if your work is likely to disturb asbestos, then you may encounter exposure to it, leading to serious health risks.

You can’t identify the asbestos-containing materials with naked eyes. However, with certain signs, you can know of the clues indicating its presence. If your work involves where asbestos poses serious risks, then you should have awareness of protecting the safety of yourself and those around you.

This course has been developed with a key emphasis on creating knowledge on identifying asbestos and working safely with asbestos-containing materials. The major purpose of this course is to help people who work with asbestos to have a good understanding of finding out the presence of asbestos and what are the steps to take to be safe if the material seems to be disturbed/released.

If you have the requirement of working in environments where asbestos presence is expected, undergoing this course can help you in identifying asbestos-containing material and safety requirements to stay protected.
