Revised manual with guidance and an extensive list of task sheets. For all workers (employers, employees and self-employed) who may come into contact with asbestos, such as electricians, builders, plumbers, carpenters and other trades.

The 38-specific task sheets cover most aspects of potentially hazardous work on, or near, asbestos materials including drilling, removing, repairing, painting, enclosing and cleaning. Broader issues relating to uncovering or damaging asbestos, the required training, vacuuming, damp wetting, decontamination and disposal are covered by general advice given in stage-by-stage method sheets.
