2 Policy General Statement 1 Bucks New University acknowledges the health hazards arising from exposure to and will protect employees, students and other persons potentially exposed as far as is reasonably practicable. This will be achieved by minimising exposure through the management of -containing materials in the university premises. 2 Everyone who needs to know about the presence of will be alerted. No one will be allowed to start work that could disturb unless the correct procedures are to be employed. 3 This policy requires the full co-operation of management and employees at all levels. The person responsible for the implementation of this policy is the Health & Safety Manager. Assessment 4 Where required the university has been surveyed to determine whether containing materials are present. It will be presumed that materials contain unless there is strong evidence to the contrary. 5 The amount and condition of the -containing material will be assessed and measures will be identified to ensure that airborne fibres are not present or formed in the workplace. A Written Plan 6 A written plan that sets out the location of the -containing material and how the risk from this material will be managed will be prepared, and steps will be taken to put the plan into action. The plan and the arrangements will be reviewed at regular intervals, or when there has been a significant change to the university or personnel. Control of Access to -containing Materials 7 Access to -containing materials in the premises will be controlled to prevent inadvertent disturbance of the material and the release of fibres. A plan or register showing the location of all -containing materials and presumed -containing materials will be made available. 8 Systems will be put in place to ensure that anyone liable to disturb -containing materials is made aware of their location. Monitoring and Maintenance 9 The condition of all -containing materials or materials suspected of containing will be inspected at agreed intervals to ascertain that there has been no damage or deterioration. Where damage or deterioration is found the containing material will be reassessed and repaired or removed as appropriate. Buckinghamshire New University Page 2 of 6
