Who has to be told and what are a contractor's legal duties if asbestos is discovered during ceiling work in Waterloo, Ontario?
In Ontario, the contractor running the project must protect workers, keep other people out of the work area and follow the correct procedure for the type of asbestos work being done. Higher-risk work requires notifying the Ministry of Labour before it starts. The homeowner should be told in writing what was found and what happens next. Asbestos waste is wetted, double-bagged, labelled and taken to a licensed disposal site, never put in household garbage.
