Asbestos Awareness - Annual Refresher

Asbestos is one of the biggest occupational health issues and kills around 5000 workers each year, which is greater than those who die through road traffic accidents in the UK.  However, asbestos is not just a problem of the past.  It can be present today in any building built or refurbished before the year 2000.

The Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, Approved Code of Practice states that ‘Refresher training should be given regularly’.  SSG offer this training as a two hour toolbox talk.
