Upcoming Asbestos Training Courses
Asbestos Awareness for Buildings and Construction Projects with Respirator Awareness and Fit Testing
Date and Time: TBA
Location: Days Inn, TBA
Ontario Regulation 278/05 Asbestos on Construction Projects and in Buildings and Repair Operations applies to any building with building materials that may be asbestos containing materials (ACM). The provisions of O. Reg. 278/05 are intended to prevent exposure to airborne asbestos fibres. Accidently disturbing ACM could put occupants at risk, cause costly construction delays and result in Ministry of Labour orders. In this course our unique hands-on approach helps participants recognize ACM and understand and use asbestos management programs.
