Asbestos-management FAQs
What should an asbestos management plan include?
It should identify responsibilities, refer to the current register and risk assessments, prioritise actions, explain contractor and incident procedures and state monitoring and review arrangements.
Who is the dutyholder?
Responsibility can rest with the owner, landlord, employer or organisation with maintenance or repair obligations, depending on contracts and control of the premises.
Is a Management Survey the same as a management plan?
No. The survey supplies inspection evidence. The plan explains how the dutyholder will manage the recorded risks, actions, communication and review.
Can ASM update an existing management plan?
Yes. ASM can review the survey, register, completed actions, building changes and reinspection findings before updating the plan within the agreed scope.
