Maylarch has extensive experience in dealing with asbestos found in construction projects. As well as understanding the safety, legal and regulatory procedures regarding asbestos, Maylarch are also able to share their knowledge of the commercial considerations with seminar attendees.

- Overview of asbestos
- Overview of current asbestos regulations in the UK
- Duty to manage
- Licensed work, non-licensed work and notifiable non-licensed work
- Identification, removal, disposal and documentation requirements of asbestos
- Overlap of CAR 2012 asbestos regulations with other legislation affecting construction – CDM 2015 and waste
- Opportunity for questions and answers to address attendees’ real issues
Objectives:
Attendees will understand:
- Background and dangers of asbestos
- How to deal safely with asbestos within construction and development projects
- Best practices to protect themselves and their company from legal liability
- How to manage the processes around asbestos removal
- The rules and procedures that must be met for compliance
This knowledge will enable attendees to minimise legal and safety risks of asbestos found on construction sites and make good commercial decisions on asbestos related matters.
Who should attend?
The regulations around asbestos require ‘competent people’ and ‘duty holders’ to be in place so it is important for those on site with that responsibility to have up to date knowledge.
The seminar can be tailored to your exact requirements, but Maylarch can run the seminar for housebuilders, contractors, developers and building and property consultants on request.
Typical attendees would be project managers, planners, environmental consultants, cost consultants, engineers and other professionals who are involved in managing asbestos found on construction sites.
Location and cost:
If you have a group of people who would benefit from this CPD course, you arrange a suitable venue and a Maylarch expert will attend and present the content.
Maylarch also offer a limited number of free lunchtime sessions which also carry CPD accreditation.

Certification:
The course is accredited by the CPD and attendees will all receive a certificate of completion.
