RoSPA Asbestos Awareness Training Course FAQs

If you would like to know more about this course, then these frequently asked questions have all the answers.

Why are Asbestos Training Courses necessary?

Before asbestos was banned in 1999, it was utilised as insulation and fireproofing in buildings. Today, asbestos is understood to be an extremely dangerous substance, killing approximately twenty tradespeople per week. Although the substance can no longer be used in construction, older buildings may still house asbestos-containing materials.

The Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 states that if your working environment increases the likelihood of encountering or disturbing asbestos-containing materials, you must be fully trained in both the dangers and correct safety practices.

How often should you do an Asbestos Awareness Course?

The Category A RoSPA approved asbestos awareness course is valid for 12 months. At which point, you can simply undertake the course again to re-validate your certificate.

Who is the RoSPA Asbestos Awareness Course for?

The RoSPA asbestos awareness course is suitable for all trades that have the potential to come into contact with asbestos-containing materials. It is a legal requirement that anyone who is working around, or directly with, asbestos materials undergo sufficient training prior to starting work.

Job roles that are particularly at risk of asbestos exposure include:

  • General maintenance workers
  • Building surveyors
  • Electricians
  • Architects
  • Joiner and carpenters

  • Burglar/fire alarm installers
  • Plasterers
  • Telecommunication engineers
  • Construction workers
  • Demolitions workers
  • Roofers

This is not an exhaustive list of tradespeople; therefore, if you believe that you are at risk of asbestos exposure, you should speak with your employer about investing in training.
