Questions about this check
Does this tool determine whether asbestos is present?
No. It organizes reference points from your answers. It does not inspect materials, perform laboratory analysis or make a legal determination.
Is an asbestos survey unnecessary below 80 m² or ¥1 million?
No. Those figures mainly relate to government reporting thresholds. They do not by themselves remove the separate pre-work survey question.
