The United Nations has recently assured staff members that its $2 billion dollar renovation is being conducted in a safe manner. Part of the renovation includes the removal of asbestos-laden ceiling tiles from one of its buildings and concerns had been raised by workers that the removal process was not taking all of the precautions that were necessary to protect them. A spokesperson assured everyone that not only was the company handling the abatement taking the necessary precautions, but that the UN had a hired an independent company to monitor air quality for any signs of asbestos-contaminated air.
