Administration of Occupational Safety and Health: Permits and assessments

How should asbestos be handled, and is a special permit or certification required to work with it?

Asbestos is dangerous to health of people and its use is prohibited in Iceland. See information on our website.

Only those who have the certifications and knowledge to work with asbestos may work with demolition or maintenance of asbestos in buildings, machines or other equipmentat. The AOSH holds regular certification courses for those who want to work on the demolition or maintenance of asbestos and processes applications for authorization to work with asbestos.
