When it comes to asbestos inspection and testing, accreditation really does matter
In support of National Asbestos Awareness Week, NATA has put the spotlight on the importance of asbestos identification, inspection, testing, removal and disposal.
Central to this is our featured webinar – The Science of Asbestos Safety: Why Accreditation Matters
The webinar – featuring industry professionals – seeks to educate the wider community about how accredited inspection and testing helps appropriately and legally deal with asbestos in the home, at work and at our international borders.
View our webinar below and we will continue to add key asbestos resources to this page.
