Ensuring Your Asbestos Compliance
If you require demolition and asbestos removal activities you must first provide evidence of the ability to do this work in a safe way to ensure the protection of your employees/sub-contractors. Occupli Consultancy provide clients with practical advice on your duties under the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work (Exposure to Asbestos) Regulations 2006 and the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work (Exposure to Asbestos) (Amendment) Regulations 2010.
Our asbestos consultants identify and assess the risks posed by asbestos in your workplace in accordance with Irish legislation and current best practice. We then ensure any asbestos fibre levels in the air are kept to a minimum and within statutory guidelines through effective implementation of action levels, control limits and clearance indicators.
Managing your Risk with Asbestos Air Monitoring
Occupli Consultancy carry out air monitoring to assess the concentration of airborne asbestos fibre levels that have been generated .
Air monitoring may be carried out for the following reasons:
- To confirm that an appropriate level of personal protection has been chosen
- To check the effectiveness of dust suppression methods
- To provide data for employee exposure records
- To check that an area is suitable for re-occupation upon completion of asbestos related work
Occupli Consultancy air monitoring services include:
- Background Sampling to establish the respirable fibre concentrations prior to any activity which may lead to airborne asbestos contamination, to ensure that the risk is not being increased as a result of the activity
- Leak Sampling (enclosure check) to check that the environmental control systems are adequate
- Personal Sampling to ensure that the protection factor afforded by the reparatory protective equipment selected is adequate and for compliance sampling
- Clearance Indicator Sampling (clearance testing) to check that the airborne fibre levels in the asbestos work area are below the clearance level indicator
- Reassurance Sampling to confirm that the airborne asbestos fibre levels are less than the occupational exposure limit
