PDA HSE Asbestos Warning
PDA HSE Asbestos Warning
The Painting and Decorating Association (PDA) joined forces with the Health and Safety Executive to raise awareness of the dangers of asbestos at the National Painting and Decorating Show 2012. The trade body issued leaflets advising decorators what to do if they uncovered or damaged materials that may contain asbestos at the event, held at the Ricoh Arena in Coventry.
A record number of visitors called on the stand over the two day show, including representatives interested in associate membership. Neil Ogilvie, Chief Executive of the PDA, said: “We had a really busy two days and the number of enquiries for membership was exceptional.
“As Britain’s largest trade body dedicated to the painting and decorating trade, many professionals in the trade and associated industries are seeing the benefits of being involved in the PDA. In the current business climate, these services are more important than ever and ensure membership of the PDA represents great value.”
