Earlier this year, British asbestos campaigners launched a national survey exploring general awareness and understanding of asbestos in buildings and the regulations designed to protect UK workers from being exposed to asbestos in their workplace.

The survey was developed in conjunction with the United Kingdom Accreditation Service (UKAS) the organisation that currently accredits over 100 asbestos inspection bodies to carry out asbestos surveys.

The survey was promoted across all industries via the UK’s leading trade associations and trade unions, membership organisations and industry institutions.  Tradesmen, building occupiers, dutyholders, clients, FM’s, property managers of non-domestic buildings were encouraged to take the survey.

We had an overwhelming response and would like to thank all of those that took the survey.

Survey findings and results are being collated and these will be available in the next couple of weeks.
