Why Crystalline Silica Exposure Assessment is Required?

A person conducting a business or undertaking (PCBU) has a duty to manage the risks to health and safety when employees are using, handling, generating and storing hazardous substances including silica. PCBU must ensure that employees exposure to respirable crystalline silica dust is below the exposure standards set by Work Safe Australia and as low as reasonably practicable.

Air monitoring should be conducted if there is a risk to a worker’s health. Ongoing health monitoring may be required.
