How to Manage Risks with Demolition Work
Managing risks associated with demolition work in is of paramount importance to ensure the safety of workers, the public and the environment. Firstly, a comprehensive risk assessment must be conducted before any demolition project commences. This assessment should identify potential hazards such as structural instability, presence of hazardous materials (like asbestos), nearby utilities and the proximity of surrounding buildings or infrastructure.
The Risk Assessment Process
Based on the assessment, a detailed demolition plan should then be developed, outlining the specific methods and techniques to be employed, along with safety measures to mitigate the identified risks. It is essential to involve experienced professionals, such as structural engineers and licensed asbestos removalists, to ensure the work is carried out with the highest safety standards.

- Consulting with a qualified demolition contractor: A qualified demolition contractor will have the experience and expertise to help you manage the risks involved in demolition work.
