UKATA Asbestos Awareness Training Courses

Franks Portlock is a UKATA (UK Asbestos Training Association) certified provider of asbestos awareness training courses. Founded in 2006, our national industry experience combines proven consultancy expertise with a personal service to our clients.

About our training sessions

Asbestos awareness training is a mandatory requirement, outlined by the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, for anyone who might come into contact with asbestos in the course of their work. It it also recommended for supervisors, managers or anyone else responsible for works which might disturb asbestos. Our training courses are comprehensive and fully compliant with the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012.

Examples of those who may come into contact with asbestos include:

  • Anyone who may disturb the fabric of buildings.
  • People who work on contaminated land.
  • Anyone maintaining a building that may be affected by asbestos use.

Our flexible approach means we are able to add supplementary elements to the training if required, making it relevant to your circumstances – that can mean supporting you in working with different types of asbestos, or honing training to the particular maintenance work you may be carrying out.

To book a place on one of our asbestos awareness training courses, or to enquire further, please contact us.

During a recent review by our Health and Safety consultant, it was noted that a Legionella Risk Assessment was necessary for our studio. We contacted Franks Portlock who undertook a full review of the premises and provided us with a greater understanding of the UK regulations and requirements. Sean Green supplied us with a detailed Legionella risk assessment and offered pragmatic advice and guidance on the procedures required to remain compliant, the whole process was seamless from start to finish.. Sean attention to detail and dedication was faultless throughout the entire process and it was a pleasure to work with both him and the team.

The de Ferrers Trust

Six months ago, we instructed Sean and the team at Franks Portlock for their services in Water Hygiene and we have been blown away by the service he has provided us. We have a number of different schools on board with him that range from full water hygiene monthly management, to RA's and Annual services. When tendering we found that Frank's Portlocks cost were similar to what we were already paying, however the level of detail that the contract covers far outweighs any previous contract we've ever had. The Monthly meetings have made a massive difference in ensuring that faults and risk items are dealt with promptly and appropriately. As the person who oversees compliance across our trust, I no longer have to worry about the water hygiene compliance in our schools that use Franks Portlock.
