You work in the asbestos industry.
From experience, you know better than anyone else...
how to remove asbestos safely and efficiently.
Your experience may lead to a new innovative method for removing asbestos.
Alternatively,
you may want to make an existing asbestos removal method...
nationally applicable.
In both cases,
it is important that your method is included in the SMA-rt web application,
so you do not have to demonstrate the safety of your working method...
all over again for each assignment, project or inspection.
This will save you time and money.
To arrange this, just contact us:
the Validation and Innovation Point for Asbestos.
The VIP is an independent body...
that assesses and validates innovative asbestos removal methods for national use.
Our validation procedure consists of 3 steps...
and is completely free of charge.
In step one, you prepare a dossier about your working method.
In it, you answer two questions.
What does your working method involve?
And is it safe?
Substantiate your safety claim with data from an exposure study.
In step two, the independent experts of the VIP assess your dossier.
In the last step, the VIP advises the Ministry of Social Affairs and Employment...
whether your working method can be added to the SMA-rt web application.
The VIP advice is followed by an independent assessment...
by the Netherlands Labour Authority,
which includes a consideration of the enforceability and feasibility...
of your working method.
Is everything in order?
and has the Ministry of Social Affairs and Employment decided...
that your working method can be added to the SMA-rt web application.
Then you can demonstrate that your working method is safe...
and nationally applicable.
