a crucial role in workplace with 

workers who disturbs or deals with 

asbestos. Unawareness can lead to

Asbestos is mainly referred to as six naturally occurring 

fibrous minerals. These fibers are very minute in size and 

which is not possible to see with bare eyes, because of this 

unique nature, it can be easily inhaled by the human 

respiratory system and can embed in the lung especially when 

these fibers exposed into the air from damaged or broken 

asbestos. 

 

Without a proper asbestos awareness training, it is 

impossible to remove asbestos properly by avoiding airborne

8. After removing asbestos waste must be disposed of in a 

landfill that has a specific permit authorising it to accept 

asbestos. 

9. Demolition of the house or building is the next task after 

removal of asbestos, only if the owner authorizes 

demolition of the house/building to proceed. The 

demolition employer proceeds to demolish the house 

using safe work procedures. 

10. If any asbestos is found during demolition, all work is to 

hold until a risk assessment is done and the asbestos is 

safely contained or removed.  

 

Make sure that all staffs in your organisation carry a 

certificate in asbestos removal. There are many institutions 

providing asbestos awareness online course, which help 

the workers to learn along with their work.
