[QUOTE="Sidewinder, post: 342069, member: 9512"] You aren't now, I thought you were self employed/owner director of your own Ltd. Co. when I posted earlier. Sorry. Your employer has committed a criminal offence punishable by imprisonment for the person responsible for tasking you with the work and the person responsible for H&S in the company, probably a Director. They are legally responsible under both statute and civil law for your safety, and they have breached both points and also they have exposed anyone else using the property to asbestos. They have breached CAWR. So the "tennants" "own" the property, or is it rented? If it is rented, then your employer has some "recompense" on the property owner. This is VERY SERIOUS s**t, HSE would "love" this, under FFI, then this would be a gold mine for them, and at least two prosecutions! This is a difficult situation PD, the STATUTE law requires that ANYONE who COULD be exposed to working with ACM's is adequately trained. If they are then they MUST be able to identify ACM's prior to work. No need for X-Ray vision or mass spectrometers. There MUST be no ACM's present, and this MUST be certified, else, they are, and suitable precautions MUST be taken. End Of. [/QUOTE]
