Regular readers will know how highly we rate the EAF conference, and this year it takes place in the historic heart of Brussels. As always, we eagerly await more details of this year’s programme and speaker lineup, but expect a broad church of the sector’s most experienced regulators, removalists, scientists and innovators – together with charities and other organisations representing those who’ve fallen victim to asbestos diseases. There’s also an asbestos photo exhibition by renowned photographer Tony Rich.

The Asbestos Network’s personal sampling and exposure memo is the first official guidance the Health and Safety Executive has provided on the subject, and it contains major departures from how contractors traditionally approach it. We’re hosting a free webinar to talk in detail about the changes that the guidance demands. We’ll be exploring practical steps on how to implement them, and demonstrating how you can use Assure360 to achieve full compliance – at the same time as saving hours of work for both your supervisors and admin team.

This free, live event promises the chance to speak to industry experts, learn about the latest innovations and build direct relationships with key suppliers.

ExCel London
The Safety & Health Expo’s December 2024 dates come 18 months after the 2023 show, so there should be plenty to catch up on. It’s an unusually late slot for a major conference, and likely to come near both the FAAM and European Asbestos Forum conferences – we hope the dates don’t clash!
The Safety & Health Expo bills itself as the biggest exhibition in the field. Expect strong opportunities to learn, network, and find health and safety solutions for your business.
If you’re hosting, postponing or cancelling an event you’d like us to list here, please get in touch.
