Health, Safety & Environmental Bulletin No 391

9 January 2014

Asbestos

Please see enclosed a self-explanatory bulletin that was shared with us by JCI and Artelia.

Asbestos is still one of the biggest killers, and you won’t know until it is too late – asbestos takes years
before you are aware of the problems.

Our management system, Xmoman, identifies on the service orders where the site is known to contain
asbestos, but do not rely on this – check the sites asbestos register when you sign in, and keep your
eyes open for any unidentified asbestos that may be buried behind panels.

We are all a product of learning. Every skill we have; everything we know; everything we believe and everything we do has
been learned throughout the course of our lives. Some of us learn best by studying graphs and charts, some through visual
presentations, and some by reading detailed text books. It is important that we receive information in a format that works
for us as individuals! That’s why at Xmo Strata we use a variety of communication platforms such as bulletins, newsletters,
videos etc. However, if you feel there is a better way for us to share health and safety information, please let us know.
Ultimately, your safety is in your hands – but we will do all we can to keep you well informed!
