Asbestos

The presence of asbestos containing materials (ACM) within the workplace, on a project or at your home can present an immediate risk to occupant health and safety and drive emotive reactions where a lack of or incorrect information exists. RARE specialises in understanding and navigating all aspects of asbestos management.

Maintaining compliance within an ever-changing environmental legislation also presents our clients with various challenges in managing their workplaces, potentially leaving them open to major health and safety risks, breaches and fines.

RARE regularly assists clients with navigating these challenges and is a leader in the asbestos compliance space. We specialise in identifying and carrying out risk assessments, providing management advice, the development of management plans and specification, managing and supervising asbestos removal activities. RARE is well-versed in undertaking the safe removal and disposal of ACM.

Due to the inherent risk that asbestos poses to the health and safety of individuals, it is important that ACM management is conducted in a stringent manner utilising a process ensuring legislative compliance at all project stages. RARE’s asbestos compliance team includes asbestos supervisors, licensed asbestos assessors (LAA) and occupational hygienists who have extensive experience in delivering projects involving asbestos compliance in accordance with our integrated management systems and company-held removal licenses.

Having a thorough understanding of the industry, RARE understands that projects often move fast once asbestos is identified. We pride ourselves on being highly-responsive to asbestos contamination and regularly carry out make-safe procedures and subsequent identification sampling to provide our clients with additional time to make the appropriate management decision. Helping us maintain our responsiveness is our fleet of asbestos plant, including decontamination trailers, water carts, HEPA vacuums and negative pressure units.

Our wide breath of experience and skilled people means that RARE can assist you with compliance throughout your whole project lifecycle, from initial asbestos identification to delivery of the asbestos waste to a licensed landfill.
