Learn how to achieve compliance with Australian standards for fugitive dust control. Our guide outlines practical steps for evidence gathering and implementing effective engineering controls to protect people, the environment, and your operations.

Achieve Compliance with Australian Standards for Fugitive Dust Control Our attached slide outlines practical steps to meet evidence-gathering standards and implement effective engineering controls for fugitive dust compliance in Australia. See how you can protect people, the environment, and your operations by aligning with best practices and regulatory requirements.

From 1 December 2026 Australia will adopt the Workplace exposure limits for airborne contaminants (WEL list). Until 1 December 2026, PCBUs must still comply with the workplace exposure standard (WES list). Work processes can release dusts, gases, fumes, vapours, or mists into the air. These are known as airborne contaminants and may pose a risk to health and safety. Persons conducting a business or undertaking (PCBUs) must eliminate or minimise risks in the workplace from airborne contaminants so far as is reasonably practicable. This can be done by ensuring that workers or others at the workplace are not exposed to levels of airborne contaminants above their workplace exposure standard (WES) until the end of the transition period to the WEL list on 30 November 2026.

Doctors are calling for workers to be better protected from nine chemicals they have labelled "silent killers". The government's workplace regulator has found the current exposure standards are too low to sufficiently protect workers.
