Asbestos Policy

Jamieson Electrical acknowledges the health hazards arising from exposure to asbestos, and will protect those employees and other persons potentially exposed to asbestos, as far as is reasonably practicable, by minimising exposure through proper control measures and work methods supported by training of employees if required.

Present evidence suggests that dangers from asbestos in buildings are likely to arise only when products containing asbestos are damaged, either accidentally or during maintenance or repair, and the asbestos fibres are released and dispersed in the air.

The company policy on any site or location where asbestos is present or suspected, is that no work shall take place until the persons who hold responsibility for that site or location, have formally contacted the client and obtained the following information:

• The type of asbestos present, by analysis or otherwise.
• A written assessment, by competent persons, to determine the nature and degree of asbestos contamination.

When the levels of asbestos have been assessed as being of low risk, then work can be undertaken provided that the asbestos is not disturbed in any way and that any work undertaken is of a minor nature and will not affect the soundness of the asbestos.
