Industry Refresher Training for Asbestos Removal Operatives

This course ensures that candidates receive refresher training to further enhance their knowledge and practical experience to continue to work safely and effectively as an operative, as stated in the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 (CAR 2012) and Health & Safety Executive (HSE) guidance.

The content of this annual refresher is constructed from information gained from a number of industry sources to create a dynamic training session. The refresher course covers:

• Asbestos Health Effects
• Respiratory Protective Equipment (RPE)
• Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
• Controlled Stripping Techniques
• Emergency Procedures
• Enclosure Entry Exit Procedures

Candidates will be given a multiple-choice test along with practical tests (both carry an 80% pass mark). Successful candidates will receive a certificate of attainment which will state the elements covered.

One day at ARCA centres throughout the year.

This refresher training course is available on selected Saturdays at ARCA’s Burton and Rayleigh training centres.
