What should be done after conducting a walkthrough?

After conducting a walkthrough, posting warning signs is a crucial step. This action ensures safety for both the workers involved in the asbestos abatement process and anyone else who may enter the area. Warning signs serve as a clear and visible indication of potential hazards, alerting individuals to the presence of asbestos and the associated risks. This protective measure is essential in preventing accidental exposure and maintaining compliance with regulatory requirements regarding hazardous materials.

While removing non-stationary items, covering windows with poly, and securing the electrical system may also be important tasks in preparing a site for abatement, those actions follow after the presence of adequate warning signs. Posting signs takes priority as it quickly communicates the need for caution, demonstrating an immediate commitment to safety in the abatement process.
