Asbestos awareness training is essential for any worker in construction or related industries where asbestos containing materials may be present. This course is designed to teach your workers to be able to understand the hazards and risks of asbestos and how to apply safe work practices.
There is no safe level of exposure to asbestos fibres! Approximately one third of all homes built in Australia contain asbestos products. As a general rule, if your house was built before the mid-1980s, it is highly likely that it would have some asbestos containing materials.
If asbestos is disturbed it can release dangerous fine particles of dust containing asbestos fibres. Breathing in dust containing asbestos fibres can cause asbestosis, lung cancer and mesothelioma. Mesothelioma is a cancer which most often occurs in the lining of the lung.
There is no cure. The rates of malignant mesothelioma (an incurable cancer) are expected to rise from 2012 to 2020. Asbestos awareness training is essential for any worker in construction or related industries where asbestos containing materials may be present.
This course is designed to teach your workers to be able to understand the hazards and risks of asbestos and how to apply safe work practices.

OHSA was founded by our current Managing Director, Mr. Simon Phillips and his amazing wife Tracey. Simon grew up in the Victorian Mallee on a sheep and wheat farm (near a small country town called Patchewollock).
When he headed off to the big smoke (Melbourne) at 17 to pursue a professional AFL football career with Carlton (although he is a Kangaroos and now also a Broncos & Cowboys supporter).
However he wasn’t very good (he will tell you otherwise though) so he stuck at his University studies (in Melbourne and then Adelaide) and completed an Allied Health Degree and worked in healthcare institutions.
Ladders are handy, when used the right way, and dangerous when used incorrectly. Preventing falls and slips, securing and correct positioning of a ladder are discussed in this course.
