Building work standards and Codes of Practice in Australia are currently focused on controlling Crystalline Silica Dust in our construction industry.
In particular, in Queensland, the Code of Practice stipulates that when a construction worker interacts with materials containing >1% crystalline silica, for example during concrete sawing, grinding, or jackhammering, if respiratory protective equipment (RPE) is required to be used as a control measure for exposure to RCS dust, the exposure task must be recorded.
Construction work often involves the use of materials that contain RCS, a type of mineral that can cause serious lung disease when inhaled.
Safework Australia and OH&S bodies in most Australian states have adopted a new RCS code of practice.
Once a worker has had 30 instances of exposure in any given 12 month period, the worker is then required to be Health Monitored by a competent GP.
