The Sypol OH Team have supplied more than 500 personnel on major construction projects with asbestos awareness training in line with HSE recommendations and campaigns on asbestos awareness in construction trades over the past 18 months.
On one occasion contractors on site uncovered a redundant water pipe and were about to cut through it when the supervisor (having recently sat the Sypol asbestos awareness training) identified that the material was likely to contain asbestos. Work was halted and samples were taken. The pipe was confirmed as asbestos cement and was subsequently removed and disposed of safely.
