JOIN OUR WEBINAR: Line of Duty: Asbestos Responsibilities for Duty Holders

Jun. 8 2021

Under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, Duty Holders have a legal duty to assess and manage the risk from Asbestos Containing Material (ACM) in non-domestic buildings. It can be a complex undertaking, but failure to comply with the regulations can lead to the risk of financial penalty and/or litigation.

The first challenge for many building owners and occupiers is to understand who is the Duty Holder. And with an experienced team of qualified asbestos professionals, we’re here to support you every step of the way.

A new Bureau Veritas webinar

Our new webinar, developed and delivered by experts from the specialist Bureau Veritas Asbestos team, explores the challenge of asbestos management in non-domestic premises to give you everything you need to know to understand your duties and responsibilities. 

Join Anthony Flynn, technical asbestos manager at Bureau Veritas, on Tuesday 29th June (10:00am – 11am), when he will be covering topics including:

  • Who is responsible for asbestos in non-domestic premises?
  • The Duty Holder: Landlord or tenant?
  • Tenant default and forfeiture
  • Consequences of non-compliance with Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
  • How the recently published HSE Analysts Guide Document HSG248 affects Duty Holders

Anthony Flynn said: “Asbestos management can seem like a minefield, which is why many organisations turn to independent specialists like Bureau Veritas for support.

“We offer a team of qualified professionals working solely in the asbestos sector, providing asbestos compliance solutions including management surveys and re-inspections, to support organisations in achieving compliance with the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. As a truly independent consultancy with no financial association to remediation or removal contractors, we also offer complete peace of mind over the integrity of our services.

“This is the latest webinar from the Bureau Veritas team, committed to supporting our clients with the advice and information they need to do their job safety, meet all responsibilities and reduce risk across the organisation.”
