Why is asbestos dangerous? Asbestos takes the lives of a recorded 5000 workers each year! 20 tradesmen die per week due to previous exposure to asbestos.
Ben Walker was punctual, and a really great laugh and made me feel at ease before my crusher and loading shovel tests. Ben made sure I fully understood the few questions I had marked wrong on the theory's. I will be requesting Ben for all my future course's/test's. Thanks again Ben.
Being new to the industry and being very nervous on the first day, my trainer helped me feel more confident and at ease. Can't wait to start working. Thank you.
