Asbestos guidance
A client required some operator training to cover the issues around asbestos hazards. I created a tool box talk session so staff understand the hazards and what to do if they find or suspect they have found asbestos materials. To accompany the tool box talk briefing I found the videos below. I think they summarise some very useful information.
We will soon be adding links to the list below so you can access the latest information from these groups and committees.
Martin currently sits on:
- The AA's Utility Arboriculture Group (UAG)
- The National Highways Sector Scheme Committee (NHSS 18)
- The Arboricultural and Forestry Advisory Group (AFAG) Committee
- The Forestry Contracting Association (FCA) safety team
- and two Forest Industry Safety Accord (FISA) working groups
If you have an issue you would like passed on at one of these events please let Martin know.
He would be happy to raise your point and feed back any information or comments.
