1.0 INTRODUCTION
Under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 the University has a legal duty to manage asbestos
in non-domestic premises. For the purposes of managing asbestos around the University, these
regulations shall be deemed to apply to all premises controlled by the University, and shall include
student bedrooms and all other areas within Student Halls of Residence.
This document sets out the University management plan and procedures for managing asbestos.
It is to be read in conjunction with the following documents:
 Asbestos Management Strategy
 Managing Asbestos Removal Contractors
 MMU Health and Safety Policy
 MMU Health and Safety Manual
The University Asbestos Management Procedures shall meet the requirements laid down in the
Health and Safety at Work Act 1974, and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012.
The overall aim is that all ACM’s, through inspections, re-inspections, remedial or removal works are
effectively managed and risks reduced (Asbestos Management Flow Chart Appendix A).
2.0 PROCESS
The University has undertaken the following:

Taken reasonable steps to identify materials in premises likely to contain asbestos and to
check their condition

Presumed that materials contain asbestos, unless strong evidence is available they do not

Made a written record of the location and the condition of the asbestos and presumed
asbestos-containing materials and continue to keep the records up-to-date

Assessed the risk of the likelihood of anyone being exposed to these

Prepared an action plan to manage that risk and put it into effect so that:
Any material known or presumed to contain asbestos is kept in a good state of repair
Any material that contains or is presumed to contain asbestos is, because of the risks
associated with its location or condition, repaired or if necessary removed.
Information on the location and condition of asbestos material is available to anyone
potentially at risk.
Incidents involving the release or suspected release of asbestos fibres shall initiate
immediate and effective control measures and procedures to contain and manage the
risk.
The University shall undertake the following:

Presume that materials contain asbestos; unless strong evidence is available they do not

Maintain written records of the location and the condition of the asbestos and presumed
asbestos-containing materials and keep the record up-to-date

Procedures\Asbestos\Asbestos Management Plan

Assess the risk of the likelihood of anyone being exposed to asbestos fibre from these

Review and monitor the action plan and the arrangements made to put it in place

To regularly review the University Asbestos Management Plan and Procedures as part of the
quality management plan

Carry out Refurbishment & Demolition surveys prior to all building/development works to
identify the location and condition of any material that might contain asbestos. All findings to
be made available to the Contractor and included in the pre tender Health and Safety Plan
where appropriate
Management (Type 2) Asbestos surveys have been undertaken for all reasonably accessible areas of
the University. A comprehensive record of ACM’s has been compiled. This information includes
location, extent and condition of material and is be supported by photograph of sample points, CAD
plans showing the presence of asbestos, risk assessments and an asbestos management plan.
3.0 PROGRAMME FOR ENHANCED COMPLIANCE
All buildings deemed to potentially contain asbestos materials have now been surveyed.
All materials identified during the survey process have been assessed and an annual action plan for
remedial works put in place as from July 2009.
The following programme for planned works for the period from August 2012 onwards has been
prepared and is to be implemented.
Year 2013/14

Continue with Management Plan works, including the 6 to 12 month inspections of known
asbestos-containing materials

Continue identified remedial works arising from the annual action plan

Review the Management Plan periodically (annually) or as required dependant on changes
such as in legislation or working practices
4.0 RECORDING ACM’s and MANAGING RISK
4.1 Management System
ACM’s are effectively recorded and managed using a management software package (MICAD
database) which has been procured by the University. The database records the location and
condition of ACM’s by campus, building, floor, room or individual space.
4.2 Access to Information
The custodian of the records shall be Facilities Property Services. The MICAD database can be
accessed via a link from the University home page. This is only be available over the University
Intranet. Designated staff shall have ‘read-only’ access. Authorised staff, including the appointed
Asbestos Management Responsible Person and Assistant Asbestos Management Coordinators shall
have full access and input capability.

R:\Services\Facilities\Property Services\Health and Safety\Policies and
Procedures\Asbestos\Asbestos Management Plan
4.3 Material Risk and Priority Assessments
A Risk Assessment score for each ACM has been produced. This combines the Material Assessment
(product type, damage/deterioration, surface treatment, asbestos type) and the Priority Assessment
(location, material extent, use of location, occupancy level, activities carried out,
likelihood/frequency of maintenance activities).
This risk assessment forms the basis of asbestos management and will be used to determine the
management and control actions necessary.
4.4 Monitoring and Re-inspection
All ACM’s will be re-inspected at between six to twelve monthly intervals as determined by risk
assessment. Inspections shall be carried out by competent persons. The MICAD database will be
updated to record inspection findings and action taken.
4.5 Updates
The MICAD database will be constantly updated as further investigation; sampling and remedial
works are carried out.

8.8 Guidance on Containing an Accidental Fibre Release.
The Responsible Person – Asbestos and the University Health & Safety Advisor shall visit the site of
the incident as soon as reasonably practical.
The following action shall be taken: Make sure all personnel have left the area and that their names have been recorded.
 Consult the MICAD asbestos database for that area to confirm the presence of known
ACM’s.
 Determine as far as is reasonably practical, the nature and extent of the release of
any fibres.
 Secure the area by the use of hasp, staple and padlock. Retain all keys.
 Install approved signs to all doors leading to the affected area to restrict access.
 Notify reception staff.
 Notify the Site Service Manager and confirm in writing.
 Engage the services of an Asbestos Consultant to determine the scope of the release,
to undertake bulk sampling and analysis if material is unknown and to provide advice
on remedial action.
 Implement Asbestos Consultants recommendations.
 Assess the level of release and instigate reporting procedures under RIDDOR where
the exposure to fibre is, in the opinion of the consultant, presumed to have been
significant.
9.0 MONITOR AND REVIEW

STATEMENT ON ASBESTOS
Under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 the University has a legal duty to manage asbestos
in non-domestic premises.
The University has taken all reasonable steps to identify materials in premises likely to contain
asbestos and have assessed the risk of anyone being exposed.
The University are obliged to make sure that any material known or presumed to contain asbestos is
kept in a good state of repair and that any material that contains or is presumed to contain asbestos
is, because of the risks associated with its location or condition, repaired or if necessary removed.
The Facilities Department are responsible for the day to day management of the asbestos existing in
and around the University premises.
Asbestos must be respected, but need not be feared. You can only be exposed to the risk of inhaling
asbestos if it is damaged or disturbed and fibres are released into your breathing zone. Asbestos in
good condition can be safely left in place and monitored.
Staff and Students have a role to play in the Management of asbestos. They must avoid drilling,
cutting, or in any other way interfering with the fabric of the buildings. They should maintain an
awareness of the potential presence of asbestos within the workplace and report any material they
suspect has been damaged or is in poor condition to the University Help Desk (0161 247 2882), or
the University Health and Safety Unit (tel. 0161 247 3317).
