[Asbestos Project Monitor/AST job details]

1. After orientation, training, and equipment assignment is complete, project field assignment set-up sheets are emailed out to asbestos field staff based upon their availability (days/nights/weekends).

2. For larger projects greater than 5 shifts, a Project Manager will also coordinate an on-site kick-off meeting to discuss job-specific requirements. A field tech can call the Project Manager and/or Training Coordinator at any time if they have any questions or concerns.

3. PM/AST travels to NY and/or NJ sites with air sampling equipment and required field documentation (punctuality is important because clients/contractors are waiting for us to start abatement projects).

5. After the monitoring shift, the field technician packages/ships air sample cassettes to the assigned laboratory and heads home or back to the office if there are equipment needs.

6. Air results are posted on-site following shift.
