Asbestos Awareness Training

OSHA's regulation 29 CFR 1910.1101 , Occupational Exposure to Asbestos, requires all employees that my come into contact with materials, that might contain asbestos, be given comprehensive training on working safely. Many materials commonly used in buildings for many years (including ceiling tiles, vinyl flooring, as well as, wall and pipe insulation) contain asbestos, this means that the regulation applies to virtually every custodial, janitorial, and maintenance worker in the country. Our Asbestos training programs educate employees about the dangers of working with materials that may contain asbestos and how to safely handle them. Topics covered in these products include: Hazards of asbestos, OSHA's Asbestos Standard, Composition and nature of asbestos, The proper PPE and their usefulness, Types of materials that may contain asbestos, and where they are encountered, How to protect yourself when disturbing a material that may contain asbestos, and Air monitoring and decontamination.
