Asbestos certification and licensing requirements now in effect
WorkSafeBC is implementing mandatory training and licensing for asbestos abatement work to help keep workers safe from the danger of asbestos. As of January 1, asbestos abatement contractors must be licensed to operate in British Columbia, and anyone performing asbestos abatement work must complete mandatory safety training and obtain certificates.
Any employer conducting asbestos abatement work for buildings will
need a licence to do this work. This includes renovation, demolition, transporting asbestos waste, and/or performing asbestos surveys.
Independent asbestos abatement operators are not required to be licensed but do need to be certified.
