Asbestos Awareness for Social Housing
Frequently Asked Questions
It is aimed specifically at Neighbourhood Officers who need to handle asbestos cases as part of their social housing role.
It gives officers the skills to deal with asbestos cases effectively, rather than covering asbestos hazards in the abstract without a practical application.
It trains officers to impart appropriate information to tenants, so residents receive accurate guidance directly from housing staff rather than secondhand rumor.
No, it targets Neighbourhood Officers in a social housing context, not the tradespeople who physically handle asbestos-containing materials on site.
Their role combines case handling with tenant-facing communication, which is why the course pairs technical skill with how to inform residents.
