It is a legal requirement that all who may come across asbestos in their day to day work have been provided with asbestos training. If they will intentionally work on asbestos they must have had appropriate training specific to the tasks they will undertake.
Pennington Choices deliver UKATA Asbestos Training to clients across the UK. There are two training courses we offer:
Asbestos awareness, UKATA category A
This is aimed at making the candidates aware of the dangers associated with exposure to airborne asbestos fibres through unknowingly coming into contact with asbestos materials. Please note, it does NOT train you to work with asbestos containing materials (ACMs). Course duration approximately 3-4 hours.
Non-licensable work with asbestos including NNLW, UKATA category B
This course is aimed at those who knowingly will be working with asbestos containing materials where that work is not classified as “licensable work with asbestos” as defined by CAR 2012. Typically referred to as non-licensable or notifiable non-licensable (NNLW) work as detailed in HSE Guidance Asbestos Essentials, e.g. cement, gaskets, etc. Course duration minimum 1 day (includes practical).
If you have any questions then please get in touch for a confidential disucssion with one of our asbestos experts. Simply call 0800 883 034 or email info@pennington.org.uk
