What is the importance of an asbestos register?
- Locate asbestos materials
- Produce and maintain written records of the locations of sampled and presumed ACMs
- Assess the risk of exposure
- Provide suitable recommendations for the ongoing management of sampled and presumed ACMs
- Prepare a plan to manage the risk and put into effect.
- Inform anyone who is potentially at risk of exposure
- Audit the Asbestos Management Plan on a regular basis
All the above points can be addressed by implementing an asbestos register. Duty holders often make the mistake of accepting a series of standalone asbestos reports as suitable means of managing asbestos within their premises. Similarly, an asbestos register is only an effective management tool if it is kept up to date and the records are accurate.
ACS provide access to market-leading online asbestos management software that provide an easily accessible, user friendly asbestos register for the duty holders’ entire property portfolio. Our years of expertise in this field means we can either assist the dutyholder with the management of their asbestos register, or maintain the system on their behalf. As above, please feel free contact us using the details below to discuss further.
What are the advantages of an online asbestos register?
Online asbestos registers can also be accessed from most devices (desktop PCs, laptops, tablets and mobile phones)that have an internet connection, allowing users the flexibility to check the asbestos register prior to attending site.
Online asbestos registers also allow the setting up of hierarchical levels of user access, whereby Estate Managers may have full access to multiple properties and their associated asbestos registers, whist a contractor undertaking small works in one building may only have access to that one location for a limited period of time.
Another key feature of an online asbestos register is that user access logs can be tracked to ensure that users are viewing the information that they have been given access to.
