Why Informing The Fire and Rescue Service about Asbestos Is Crucial

 

Asbestos management in commercial buildings like offices, warehouses, and industrial spaces is crucial. It’s essential to inform your local Fire and Rescue service about any asbestos materials present. This step ensures the safety of their staff and the surrounding community. Many Fire and Rescue services offer online portals for submitting this information, aligning with the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012.

Prioritising this communication is key to maintaining a safe environment for all.
