Safe Work Australia has released an online airborne contaminants hub to help employers understand their WHS duties to protect workers from exposure and comply with workplace exposure limits.

The hub provides practical information to help employers and workers:

  • recognise what airborne contaminants are and how they can impact health
  • understand their WHS duties and how to manage risks from airborne contaminants,
  • learn about workplace exposure limits, and what they need to do to prepare for the changes on 1 December 2026.

Visit the new hub for easy-to-use resources, including downloadable infographics, information on what you should be doing in your workplace, and a comparative table of changes coming to workplace exposure limits.
