Asbestos is a strong and incombustible fiber widely used in the past for asbestos cement piping, fireproofing and insulation. Employers are required to provide basic awareness training for employees who may have to work around asbestos containing materials. This program covers topics where training is required by various government safety regulations, and forms the core of the two hour asbestos awareness training requirement mandated by OSHA. It is ideal for custodians, maintenance workers, and others who might contact asbestos containing materials during the course of their work.
