Exposure to asbestos is the biggest occupational cause of disease and death in the UK.
Information, instruction and training for asbestos awareness is intended to provide workers and supervisors with an awareness of asbestos. When materials that contain asbestos are disturbed or damaged, fibres are released into the air. When these fibres are inhaled they can cause serious diseases.
The Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 
came into force on 6 April 2012, updating previous asbestos regulations to take account of the European Commission’s view that the UK had not fully implemented the EU Directive on exposure to asbestos (Directive 2009/148/EC).
In practice the changes are fairly limited. They mean that some types of non-licensed work with asbestos now have additional requirements, ie notification of work, medical surveillance and record keeping. All other requirements remain unchanged.
