Do you manage buildings? What about asbestos?

Does the duty to manage asbestos affect me?
Yes, if you are responsible for maintenance and repairs. You are a ‘dutyholder’ if:
  • you own the building;
  • you are responsible through a contract or tenancy agreement;
  • there is no formal contract or agr eement but you have control of the building;
  • in a multioccupied building, you ar e the owner and have taken responsibility for maintenance and repairs for the whole building.
