The Duty to Manage Asbestos

The Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 (CAR 2012) set out the Duty to Manage Asbestos in non-domestic properties, and also the communal areas of domestic dwellings. If you or your business/organisation are responsible for building maintenance and repairs, you are the “Duty Holder” in terms of the asbestos management regulations.

Any buildings built or refurbished before the year 2000 may contain asbestos. Every such commercial building is required to have an asbestos register in place and available for inspection by employees or tradespeople working on site. The regulations are designed to protect employees and visitors from the dangers of asbestos in the workplace. Many UK insurance companies are now requiring that employers demonstrate that an Asbestos Risk Assessment has been carried out.

The Duty Holder can fulfil their obligations by employing an asbestos surveyor to create an asbestos survey report for the building in question. Initially an Asbestos Management survey should be carried out on the premises, which will provide the Asbestos Register for the property. This can then be supplemented with an Asbestos Management Plan, with the possibility of ongoing Asbestos Re-inspections to ensure that the legislation is met. Any further major works to the building will then require an Asbestos Refurbishment and Demolition survey (often known as an Asbestos R&D Survey).
