Inorganic Lead
Inorganic lead (lead) and lead compounds are found in many workplaces. Exposure to lead can cause illness and disease. If you are a person conducting a business or undertaking (PCBU) and you have lead at your workplace, you have duties under the model WHS laws to manage and monitor exposure to lead at your workplace.
