      Environmental Essentials launch their brand new E-Learning Asbestos Awareness Course.

      Asbestos is the single greatest cause of work-related deaths in the UK and Companies have a legal obligation to provide Asbestos Awareness training to all employees whose work activities could foreseeably expose them to asbestos. As UKATA and IATP registered members, Environmental Essentials have been delivering Asbestos Awareness, Non Licence Working and Duty to Manage Training for several years and have a fantastic reputation in the industry. However we also understand that it is not always cost effective or practical for Companies to allow their staff to “down tools” to attend a course.

      Environmental Essentials have developed an innovative online E-learning Asbestos Awareness course which can be taken at a time that suits individuals or employers without incurring costs associated with reduced productivity and other associated costs . This has been encouraged as the HSE have now officially recognized the benefits of, and demand for online asbestos training.

      Available as single or multiple subscriptions, the course is simple to use with a step by step guide on how to use the site and navigate through the course videos and multiple choice tests. The course provides immediate results and enables users to download their own certificate without having to wait for a copy in the post.
