6 1. Policy Statement Powys teaching Health Board, thereafter to be known as PTHB, has put in place a management structure to ensure the asbestos management policy objectives are met. This includes the allocation of responsibility for asbestos management to PTHB s Compliance & Maintenance Manager and the introduction of an asbestos management plan within the Primary & Community Care Directorate. This policy is underpinned by PTHB/EWP 002 The Asbestos Management Plan (Procedures) 2. Rationale PTHB is committed to ensuring, so far as is reasonably practicable through best practice, the health, safety and welfare of its employees, patients, students, public and others who may be affected by matters within its control. To this end PTHB, in compliance with its duties under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, has produced this Asbestos Management Policy which shall apply to all PTHB properties where asbestos is present. 3. Objectives prevent exposure to the hazards associated with asbestos containing materials (ACMs) identify the location of ACMs on PTHB premises; the type where reasonably practicable, the amount and its condition provide and maintain an Asbestos Register which records those locations and the condition of the ACMs assess the risk from ACMs based on their condition and accessibility remove ACMs which are in poor condition, easily accessible and thus readily disturbed, or that may be disturbed in the conduct of maintenance or other building works manage any ACMs left in place by labelling where there is a significant risk of disturbance, by regular inspection, and by setting up and maintaining procedures to prevent ACMs being disturbed inadvertently provide information on the location and condition of ACMs to anyone who is likely to disturb them review the effectiveness of the Asbestos Management Policy and Asbestos Management Plan on a regular basis promote awareness of the hazards of exposure to asbestos and PTHB s Policy and Procedures through training of relevant staff provide Heads of Departments, Ward Managers, Safety Representatives and any others who may require access to the Asbestos Register upon request.
