Hi There, Hope you are all having a good day!!
I have been asked by a company to do a talk to 2 members of staff who have been exposed to Asbestos. The brief is below...
"At Christmas time there was a flood in a complex that had been checked for asbestos however a cupboard had been missed. Two members of staff – a warden and a housing officer – were helping to clean up the water and the flood went into the cupboard and therefore they were exposed to asbestos".
They are looking for me to go and speak with the employees (and Spouses) and provide an informal talk.
The idea is that because they will be talking to someone outwith the company the staff can feel they can talk freely and openly and hopefully their fears will be put to rest. The company in question states that they "are happy to organise medical checks for the staff in the future should they require this".
To me it doesn't sound like they have been particularly exposed....but as with everything, more will come to light once I have gone in t speak with them.
Can anyone provide any further information that might be of benefit?
Any help would be gratefully received!!!
Thanks in advance Rachael
