Asbestos remains responsible for over 5,000 deaths annually in the UK, with many exposures linked to buildings constructed before 2000. Landlords and property managers have legal responsibilities under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 to identify and manage asbestos-containing materials in non-domestic premises and common areas of residential properties. Failure to comply can result in enforcement notices, substantial fines, reputational damage, and long-term health consequences for occupants and contractors.
This Asbestos Awareness Training for Landlords & Property Managers course provides structured guidance on recognising asbestos risks, understanding legal duties, and implementing effective management strategies. Learners will explore common asbestos-containing materials, risk identification procedures, documentation requirements, and emergency response considerations.
