Asbestos Abatement Contractor AgreementsJanuary 29th, 2005
The ideal asbestos abatement contractor agreement is one that fairly and adequately apportions the risks associated with an abatement project among the various parties involved with the work. For one reason or another, this result is seldom reached. Building owners and their consultants are persistent in their attempts to shift unlimited responsibility to the asbestos abatement contractor. It is unlikely that this will change in the near future. Therefore, asbestos abatement contractors must recognize the particularly onerous contract language which poses the greatest threat to their continued success. This article highlights some of those unmanageable contract provisions and suggests language which may protect the contractor against other risks which should more appropriately be borne by a different party.
