What this sheet is for

Keep one honest list of what is presumed, what has been sampled and what was decided, so nobody drills into something because the register was in someone's head.

Who it is for

Building owners, managing agents and site managers who have to keep track of materials in a building that may contain asbestos, and contractors who need to read it before they start.

How to use it

  1. Give every material in every location its own row and reference, even where the same product appears in several rooms.
  2. Mark each as presumed, sampled or confirmed, and update the row when a result comes back.
  3. Record the condition and the decision — leave and monitor, seal, remove — with the date it was last looked at.
  4. Log every walk-round and every disturbance in the re-inspection table.
  5. Show it to any contractor before they open a wall, ceiling or floor.

What is on the sheet

2 pages, in this order:

Page 1

Printed under the title: A room-by-room list of materials that are presumed to contain asbestos until someone proves otherwise: where they are, what condition they are in and what has been decided about them.

Presumed means untested. Presuming a material contains asbestos is a management decision, not a test result. Sampling, analysis and any survey are done by whoever your rules say may do them; record the outcome here when it comes back. Who has to keep a register, and for which buildings, is set by the rules where you are.

Questions

Is this a survey?

No. A survey is done by whoever your rules allow to do one and comes with its own report; this register is the working list that sits on top of that, or that you keep while presuming materials until a survey is done. If a report exists, write its reference at the top.

Who has to keep one, and for which buildings?

That depends on the rules where you are, and the sheet does not try to answer it. Check them, and if you are unsure, keeping the register anyway costs nothing.
