What happens if we don’t have an asbestos management plan?

If your company does not have an asbestos management plan in place, you will likely face a significant fine. The size of the fine may vary depending on your circumstances but could be up to $18,000.

Besides the penalty of a fine, you’re also putting anyone on the premises at risk of asbestos exposure. The asbestos management plan is there to ensure that the risk of asbestos exposure is understood and can be avoided.
