The Facilities Unit’s primary role is to co-ordinate maintenance of Hamilton City Council buildings and facilities, for which the Unit has responsibility, to ensure they are safe, healthy, sustainable, productive, and fit-for-purpose.

Under the Health and Safety at Work (Asbestos) Regulations 2016, there are situations where the presence of asbestos and asbestos-containing material (ACM) in a workplace must be identified. One way to identify asbestos and ACM is through a survey conducted by an asbestos surveyor.

Hamilton City Council is seeking an asbestos surveyor to conduct non-intrusive asbestos surveys on sites to identify materials that may require management.

Where asbestos containing material is identified/presumed, we require the material to be sampled, tested, and verified.

This RFQ does not apply to materials that are not easily accessible or are unlikely to be disturbed within the normal daily tasks performed by staff and contractors at the site.
