Code of Practice for the Management and Control of Asbestos in Workplaces

This Code of Practice for the Management and Control of Asbestos in Workplaces is a code of practice developed to assist persons with control of premises and/or plant to control the risks of asbestos-containing materials (ACM) in workplaces.
It sets out the steps to be taken to eliminate or otherwise minimise the risks of exposure to airborne asbestos fibres, including the identification of ACM, risk assessments and the implementation of control measures.
The objective of these measures is to prevent workplace exposure to airborne asbestos fibres and thereby reduce the incidence of asbestos-related diseases such as mesothelioma, asbestosis and lung cancer.
