Posted By paul sykes around 5 years ago i was in an environment where upon the work force came across some asbestos we were all then given a form that said we may have been subject to asbestos contamination so that in the future we were able to say this is were it was from so to cut a long story short my wifes mates husband has just reported a firm that he works for to the h and s as the firm new they were sending them into a contaminated field to clear when he sent his overalls away for testing it was covered in the stuff the firm had to then stop production at there premises until the site awas clear and the firm are now trying to blacklist him as a contractor with other firms as the closure cost them big time but my question is do you still get a form to say you may have been subject to asbestos from the firm for future use ????? your answers would be most appreciated paul

Posted By paul sykes thanks for the response Andrew any more out there???

Posted By paul sykes as a member of hm forces the thing i was going off is this In accordance with the MoD Health & Safety Policy (JSP 375, vol 2, leaflet 5), staff who have worked in environments where asbestos may have been present and are concerned that they may have been exposed to asbestos have the right to have that fact noted on their personal records. Any concerned staff who should complete MoD Form 960 (Asbestos Personal Record Annotation) and forward it through their line manager to their Personnel Section. In the case of retrospective recording for former staff, the MoD Form 960 should be forwarded directly to the appropriate personnel authority. i thought it was policy throughout and that is why i asked as asbestos is not my thing but exposure to it makes one concerned
