To read more about the asbestos related fines and penalties, see the full article here.
One of the most stringent regulations by OSHA regarding Asbestos is the proper labeling methods that should be used. OSHA 1910.1001(j)(4)(i) says that all labels should be affixed to all products and their containers that contain asbestos materials. Specifically, pipes can be properly marked by using this pipe label.
Prevent personal injury, and properly label and dispose of asbestos materials. Have the right asbestos indication and protection items on hand for a safer work environment.
