FAAM Webinar: Research Priorities – How can FAAM contribute?
The BOHS Faculty of Asbestos Assessment and Management are hosting a webinar on 8th April from 11am – 12pm.
Agenda
In this webinar, three key research areas to be discussed are:
1) What are the levels before, during (including short term) and after removal - including non-licensed activities in a range of environments (including skips/ground/cleared land)? (Ensuring prioritised safe removal)
2) Can focussed workplace sampling (for example in schools and social housing) help define, guide and prioritise both current risk of asbestos related ill health and prioritise building replacement programmes? (Understanding the contribution of past exposures via the build environment to disease risk)
3) Need to better understand behaviours of actors in the system: do people know/understand their legal roles and responsibilities under management of ACM's in situ and under duty to manage? (Assuring the effectiveness of ongoing active management in situ).
