Hazardous Substances (Plastering)
Safe handling of cement, jointing compounds, adhesives, bonding agents and plaster and silica dust used in plastering, including asbestos awareness on older buildings.
Objective
Complete the work safely by controlling skin and respiratory harm from cement, compounds, adhesives and silica dust and accidental asbestos disturbance through SDS controls, ventilation, dust suppression, skin protection and a do-not-disturb asbestos response.
This is the Plastering version. The hazards and controls are written around plastering work, so it differs from the other 51 trade versions of Hazardous Substances. Compare all 52.
Built by WHS professionals, written for your state
Every document is built by WHS professionals. Each state version references the Act, regulator, and requirements for the state you select. Victoria gets the OHS Act and WorkSafe Victoria, NSW gets the WHS Act and SafeWork NSW.
