As a result, it is essential to manage the asbestos risk in construction. This involves identifying asbestos-containing materials (ACMs), assessing the risk of exposure, and taking steps to control the risk.
The first step in asbestos risk management is to identify ACMs. This can be completed by visually inspecting materials for signs of asbestos, such as a white, flaky texture. If you suspect that a material may contain asbestos, you should have it tested by a qualified asbestos surveyor.
Next, you need to assess the risk of exposure. This involves considering the following factors:
Once you have assessed the risk of exposure, you must take steps to control the risk. This may involve:

Removal is the most effective way to control the risk of exposure to asbestos. However, asbestos removal must be carried out by a qualified asbestos contractor.
Isolation involves restricting access to the ACM. This can be done by erecting barriers or by placing warning signs in the vicinity.
