As a business owner or landlord, ensuring your building is safe isn’t just good practice — it’s the law. The Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 require all dutyholders to manage any asbestos present in non-domestic premises. Having a proper Asbestos Management Plan (AMP) in place is essential for compliance, safety, and the wellbeing of everyone on site.

What Is an Asbestos Management Plan?

An AMP is a live document that records where asbestos is located within your property, the condition of those materials, and the procedures in place to monitor or remove them. It also details who is responsible for managing the risk and what steps must be taken if asbestos is disturbed. Every commercial property built before 2000 — offices, workshops, shops, schools, and rented buildings — should have one in place.

Why It Matters

Without an Asbestos Management Plan, you could face fines, enforcement notices, or even prosecution if staff or contractors are exposed to asbestos. More importantly, an AMP protects the health of employees, tenants, and visitors by ensuring asbestos is properly identified and managed. It also gives you clear documentation if you ever sell, lease, or refurbish the property.
