SafeWork SA recently launched a campaign targeting risks associated with working in noisy environments. The six-month campaign, which started last month, is designed to raise awareness of noise-related risks and will include compliance audits across the manufacturing, warehousing, transport, construction, and mining industries.
Work health and safety ministers have agreed to a new workplace exposure limit list for airborne contaminants and a harmonised transition period, which will end on 30 November 2026. The workplace exposure limits will replace the current workplace exposure standards, after the ministers agreed to rename them to make it clear that a limit should not be exceeded, and for Australia to align with terms used internationally.
WorkSafe Victoria recently issued a safety alert reminding employers about managing the risk of falling through plaster ceilings. The alert was issued after several construction workers have fallen from roof spaces recently. In separate incidents, two workers fell through plaster ceilings while working in roof spaces, while another lost balance while standing on roof trusses. They all sustained serious and life-threatening injuries.
