Asbestos and Hazardous Materials
Management Plans
Identifibre can provide a complete asbestos management solution, incorporating the asbestos assessment and management plan framework adapted to your particular organisation structure.
An Identifibre Management Plan will assist you to comply with Occupational Health and Safety Regulations and enable the effective management of all hazards associated with asbestos. This will be achieved through a structured program that eliminates or minimises airborne asbestos fibre exposure of staff, contractors and site visitors in accordance with legislative requirements.
The asbestos register is a principle element of a management plan that will outline risk control strategies and an ongoing inspection program.
Persons in control of a workplace must take reasonable steps to label and record asbestos in a register and inform everyone on the premises where asbestos is present, the consequences of exposure to asbestos and other appropriate control measures.
The plan/register must be readily accessible to workers and others at the workplace, kept up to date and be reviewed at least once every five years, or sooner if:
- A control measure or the register is reviewed
- Asbestos is removed, disturbed, sealed or enclosed
- The plan is no longer adequate for managing asbestos or asbestos containing materials at the workplace
- A health and safety representative requests a review in certain circumstances.
Asbestos containing materials should be labelled for easy identification.
Identifibre offers a labelling service whereby we supply and install labels (see examples pictured), these generic labels are also available for purchasing.
