Asbestos inspection
Working with asbestos is not without risk, especially when combined with physically demanding work. Long-term exposure to asbestos fibers can cause serious damage to the lungs, heart and musculoskeletal system. Symptoms often do not appear for years, making early detection all the more important.
To protect your employees, a periodic occupational health examination is mandatory for anyone working in asbestos remediation.
Mandatory inspection
The first inspection takes place before the employee comes into contact with asbestos, preferably immediately upon employment. It is then repeated every three years. Our company doctors conduct the examination in accordance with the guidelines of the Occupational Health and Safety Decree.
In doing so, we take into account the nature of the work, the duration of exposure and the physical strain of the work. In this way, we ensure an appropriate and responsible assessment of your employee's employability.
Health in focus in high-risk work
During the examination, we assess whether your employee is medically fit to work safely with asbestos. We identify possible health risks and physical abnormalities, with specific attention to lung function, cardiovascular health and the musculoskeletal system.
We also provide targeted education on protective equipment, working methods and lifestyle. In this way, we help your employee prevent complaints and continue to work responsibly.
