Asbestos Awareness Training Dublin gives workers in Dublin and across Dublin the knowledge to recognise asbestos and avoid disturbing it on the job. As Ireland's largest city, Dublin pairs a huge stock of Georgian and mid-century buildings with constant refurbishment and fit-out work in the city centre and suburbs. Because so much of that building stock predates the 1999 asbestos ban, awareness training is a real, everyday safety need here - not a formality.
The good news is that you do not need to travel or book a classroom day. You can complete accredited Asbestos Awareness Training online in about 45 minutes and download your certificate the same day, wherever you are in Dublin.

Why asbestos is a live issue in Dublin
From the redbrick terraces of Rathmines to 1960s and 1970s office blocks around the quays and industrial units in Ballymount and Tallaght, Dublin is full of pre-2000 buildings where asbestos was standard. The pace of refurbishment in the capital means crews disturb these materials daily. We support learners across the city centre, Tallaght, Swords, Blanchardstown and Dún Laoghaire and the wider Dublin area.
Who needs the training in Dublin
Across Dublin, the workers most likely to disturb asbestos include construction and demolition crews, electricians and plumbers, fit-out and refurbishment contractors, facilities and property maintenance teams and social housing maintenance crews. If your work opens up pre-2000 buildings, your employer must provide awareness training under CAR 2006 - read whether training is required in Ireland.

What this course does and does not cover
This online course builds awareness and understanding. It helps you recognise asbestos-containing materials (ACMs), understand the health risks, and follow the correct STOP - CHECK - REPORT response if you suspect asbestos during your work.
It does not authorise you to remove, survey, test, sample or deliberately disturb asbestos. Licensed asbestos removal, asbestos surveying and air testing each require separate, specialist qualifications. Employers may still need to provide task-specific training, supervision and a written risk assessment before any work near ACMs begins.
