Asbestos removal supervisors' course

Thursday, 21 February, 2008 | Supplied by: TAFE NSW


TAFE NSW has developed a WorkCover NSW recognised four-hour program Bonded Asbestos - Nominated Supervisors Course for people who supervise teams in the bonded asbestos removal areas.

The NSW government has amended the OHS Regulation 2001 to improve the safety of workers and the public from unsafe exposure to asbestos. The amendments reduce the threshold limits for when a WorkCover NSW licence is required to remove bonded asbestos.

With the above changes to the threshold, persons undertaking smaller asbestos removal work will now require a licence from WorkCover NSW. To obtain a licence, a nominated supervisor must now complete recognised training to manage and supervise the asbestos work being carried out.
