HSE is working with key stakeholders (Trades Unions, Trade Associations, Suppliers) to raise awareness amongst tradesmen that they are at risk from exposure to asbestos. During February and March 2008 a campaign will be rolled out to target building maintenance and repair workers (e.g. electricians, plumbers and carpenters and joiners) using the theme ‘You are more at risk than you think!’ that features both national and regional activity.
