Asbestos Awareness & Safety Consultancy Services
Protect Your Workplace from Asbestos Risks with EHS International
Leading Asbestos Consultancy, Training & Risk Management Solutions in Ireland & the UK
Asbestos exposure remains a significant workplace hazard, especially in older buildings, industrial sites, and construction environments. Despite widespread bans, asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) are still present in many workplaces, posing serious health risks to employees.
At EHS International, we provide comprehensive Asbestos consultancy, risk assessments, training, and management services to help businesses (both in the Ireland and the UK) comply with asbestos safety regulations and protect their workers.
Why is Asbestos Dangerous?
Asbestos fibres, when inhaled, can cause serious long-term health issues, including:
- Asbestosis – Scarring of lung tissue, leading to breathing difficulties.
- Lung Cancer – Increased risk of cancer due to asbestos fibre inhalation.
- Mesothelioma – A rare and aggressive cancer affecting the lining of the lungs.
These diseases often develop decades after exposure, making early detection and workplace asbestos management essential.
There is no known safe level of exposure. Employers (and those in control of workplaces) must ensure that necessary precautions are put in place to provide protection to those who may be affected by the presence of ACMs. Where the ACM hazard cannpt eb eliminated then suitable controls must be put in palce to reduce exposure to
