About IATP Asbestos Awareness
Our IATP Asbestos Awareness training course is designed for anyone who might come into contact with asbestos during their normal work activities.
The key purpose of this course is to provide adequate knowledge, skill and competence to the trainees to work safely on the work premises.
Why Is IATP Asbestos Awareness Important?
Asbestos can be found in any building built before 2000 and causes around 5000 deaths annually. The Control of Asbestos Regulation 2012 requires anyone likely to be exposed to or disturb asbestos at work to undertake asbestos training.
