Asbestos Training.

Course Overview

Pinchin's asbestos awareness course offers a thorough yet concise overview of asbestos uses, health hazards, and regulatory requirements. This course is designed for anyone who may encounter asbestos in the workplace or home, as well as those who are involved in health & safety or administer Asbestos Management Programs.

While other asbestos awareness training courses provide basic information on the hazards of asbestos, Pinchin's Asbestos Awareness course incorporates Pinchin's decades of knowledge managing asbestos-containing materials, to help you understand the implications of asbestos-related regulations to your and your workplace.

Please note: the scope of this course does not include the requirements to perform asbestos work in Ontario. Pinchin offers separate training courses for asbestos workers.
