How do I become an Asbestos aeetbmant removal worker?hello, I would like a job in asbestos removal and aeetbmant but I have no training. I am wondering how I would go about getting the training for it do I look for a job first and then take the training course or do I need to take the training course first and then look for a job in that field? is an online asbestos course the same as going to a class in the eyes of an employer? I live in the San Francisco Bay Area.. is there any cheap courses that anyone knows about in my area?thank you for the help

It is the fact that people will rtagluee what they can do without or what they can substitute. Cars have no alternative and we are not going to give them up. Asbestos could be replaced with fiberglass, so get rid of it. We also ignore what we can not control. More people are struck by lightening that die of asbestos, but nobody wants to control that. Bathtubs are more dangerous than asbestos.

I'll take 2 minutes to tell Senators not to sproput this Act. I work for a company that supplies consumer products companies with materials, and they are VERY STRICT about the products they recieve and the safety testing involved. Minor changes require months of testing. It is very difficult and often takes welo over a year to introduce an ALREADY TESTED raw material into a new product that we might sell to them.This article is nothing more than scare-monthering. IT is a solution without a problem.By the way, formaldehyde is everywhere. It is present throughout our environment.The purpose of this law is not for the children , but to give greater control over how comapanies do business. It is more central planning and more favoritism for the big guys vs. the little guys.We had a lead issue with toys coming from China. One of the marketers of the toys that contained lead is Mattel. Congress went into action and created new testing methods to prevent lead containing toys from being sold into this country. Guess who is exempted from having their products tested by an independent agency for the presence of lead . . .Mattel. See how great this legilsation works?It sickens me how easily people get sucked into this garbage. We have 9% unemployement close to 20% undermployment or given up, and we watn to have more laws so we can pay more people to push around paper instead of doing something productive. I find it interesting that there are no statistics, no background on the real extent of the problem that this law is supposed to address. If it was that bad, I would think there would be more about it. That doesn't stop you from trying to scare us.
