Asbestos Awareness Training is crucial for Australian workplaces dealing with older infrastructure. Exposure to asbestos fibres can lead to severe health issues, including an increased risk of developing certain cancers.
Ensuring staff understand the risks and proper handling procedures not only safeguards their health but also complies with national regulations.
Without this knowledge, workers, and businesses alike are at risk. It's not just about ticking a box; it's about keeping Aussie workers safe on the job.
