Asbestos Register
If a Coles Group site has an Asbestos Register, contractors must review the Asbestos Register before commencing work. If asbestos is present, the contractor must note the location details to ensure that it is not disturbed. If the proposed work requires the disturbance of any asbestos or fibrous material, the contractor must:
- inform the Site Manager
- take precautions to ensure that there is no exposure to airborne fibres
- execute any removal or disturbance of asbestos in compliance with the relevant legislation; for example, by using a licensed asbestos removalist, including air monitoring during removal and/or issue of a clearance report from a competent person prior to re-occupation (eg occupational hygienist)
