Asbestos Management

The implementation of Stage 3 of the Control of Asbestos at Work Regulations 2002 takes place with effect from May 2004; Regulation No. 4 - Duty to Manage - came into force on the 21st May 2004.

These regulations place an explicit duty on the University to:-

• Locate and identify any Asbestos Containing Materials (ACM's) within the University Estate.
  


• Assess the risk from ACM's.
  


• Take action to manage the risk.
  

In order to achieve compliance Building Services has implemented a Policy and Management Plan to manage Asbestos Containing Materials occuring within the University Estate. This Policy and Management Plan applies to all areas of the University without exception and must be adhered to.
