Asbestos management plans

At PVES, we specialise in creating bespoke asbestos management plans tailored to the unique needs of each property. Our management plans are designed to help property owners and managers take control of asbestos risk over time, ensuring both safety and legal compliance in line with UK regulations.

The importance of an asbestos management plan

An asbestos management plan is a critical document for any property that contains or is suspected of containing asbestos. It outlines the procedures and responsibilities for controlling and monitoring asbestos-containing materials (ACMs), ensuring that they are properly managed to prevent exposure to harmful fibres.

Under the Control of Asbestos Regulations (CAR), it is a legal requirement for property managers and owners to have an asbestos management plan in place for non-domestic premises. Failure to comply can result in significant penalties and pose serious health risks to building occupants and workers. Our asbestos management plans provide you with the comprehensive framework needed to safely handle asbestos over the long term.

Tailored management plans for every property

At PVES, we understand that no two properties are the same. That’s why we offer bespoke asbestos management plans that are specifically designed to address the unique risks and requirements of your building. Whether you manage an office, industrial site, school, or residential building, we will work closely with you to develop a plan that ensures ongoing safety and compliance.

Key elements of our asbestos management plans

• Asbestos register
  Each plan includes a detailed asbestos register that records the location, condition, and risk level of all identified asbestos-containing materials within the property. This register is updated regularly to reflect any changes in the condition of the materials or as a result of new surveys.
• Monitoring and re-inspection schedule
  We establish a monitoring schedule to regularly check the condition of asbestos materials. This ensures that potential risks are identified and mitigated before they become a problem. Regular re-inspections are an integral part of effective asbestos management, helping you stay on top of changes and comply with legal requirements.
• Risk assessment and control measures
  Our plans provide a clear assessment of the risks posed by asbestos-containing materials and outline specific control measures to manage those risks. This may include advice on encapsulation, labelling, restricted access, or the safe removal of asbestos when necessary.
• Roles and responsibilities
  We help you define the roles and responsibilities of those involved in managing asbestos within your organisation. This includes identifying the duty holder, establishing who is responsible for routine checks, and ensuring all staff are aware of asbestos risks and procedures.
• Emergency procedures
  In the event of accidental disturbance or damage to asbestos materials, our plans include clear emergency procedures to follow, ensuring the safety of occupants and workers while complying with legal requirements.
