Landlords in Haringey Council must ensure that asbestos management is a top priority, particularly in older buildings. Asbestos, when disturbed, releases harmful fibers that can lead to serious health conditions like mesothelioma and lung cancer. Proper asbestos management is critical for ensuring tenant safety and staying compliant with legal requirements.

Legal Responsibilities for Landlords

The Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 requires landlords in Haringey Council to manage asbestos in non-domestic buildings and shared areas in residential properties. Key responsibilities include:

• Arranging for an asbestos survey to assess the presence and condition of asbestos.
• Creating an asbestos management plan to minimize exposure risks.
• Monitoring and reviewing the asbestos condition regularly and ensuring safe practices during repairs or renovations.

Non-compliance with these regulations can lead to fines and health risks for tenants.
