New asbestos guidance published
The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) has produced new guidance for businesses working with textured decorative coatings that contain asbestos.
Last year's Control of Asbestos at Work Regulations removed the necessity of having a licence to work with these materials, Work Place Law reported.
The factsheets cover practices such as drilling and boring, inserting and removing screws and removing debris following a ceiling or wall collapse.
