Armco are holding our monthly Asbestos Awareness and Works with Non-Licensed Asbestos Containing Materials training session on Friday, 27th July 2012 at Bury Business Centre, Kay Street, Bury, BL9 6BU.

The Control of Asbestos Regulations state that asbestos training is mandatory for anyone who is involved with or affected by disturbing the fabric of a building in their works tasks. The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) take this very seriously and if you navigate the other stories in this news feed you will see that they prosecute and fine those failing to provide this.

The cost of the fine far outweighs the mere £55 per person plus VAT which we charge for you to attend our Asbestos Awareness training.  We have scheduled our next Asbestos Awareness training for Friday, 27^th July 2012 right here in the conference room at Bury Business Centre, Kay Street, Bury, BL9 6BU. We also are holding that day Works with Non-Licensed Asbestos Containing Materials training, which is £165 plus VAT per person.
