| Abstract |
Swedish directive No.52, concerning health hazards due to asbestos dust, requires employers to notify the National Swedish Board of Occupational Safety and Health of all projects and operations involving the handling, use or processing of asbestos or material containing asbestos. In case of doubt as to whether the employer has complied with this statutory obligation, it is the plant safety offier's duty to make the necessary notification to the Board, informming the employer of the action taken. A model statutory declaration form indicating number of exposed workers, type of operation and type of material used is appended. |
