Abstract     Production and trade of asbestos products are forbidden since 1996. The fact isn't enough to ensure that there will not be no exposure to dust arising from asbestos or materials containing asbestos. There are thousands tons of asbestos built in buildings, houses, schools, kindergartens, trains, ships etc., which should once be removed. Workers at the highest risk for asbestos illness will be those who will remove asbestos and materials containing asbestos, especially construction workers. Draft of the regulation on the protection of workers from the risks related to the exposure to asbestos at work forecast minimum requirements for safety and health at work with asbestos. It is based on the EU Directive 83/477/EEC which is amending with Directive 91/382/EEC. Draft of the regulation includes the'definitions of basic terms, prohibitions and restrictions, limit values and the obligations of the employers in the area of health and safety at work. Employers should take into account all minimum requirements from the draft of regulation, but they can also assure mare restrictive requirements.
