WorkSafe Release – Scaada responds to High Pressure on Roofs

According to Work Safe, there have been alarming incidents across Australia where residents have used high-pressure water spray equipment on asbestos roofs. This has resulted in asbestos-contaminated dust and debris spreading across homes and neighbouring properties.

To prevent similar incidents, Scaada offers expert assistance with the following control measures:

  • Asbestos Identification: Asbestos identification involves that you ensure you have the potential asbestos material tested before any work.
  • Asbestos Management Plan: Develop a plan to manage the asbestos containing material appropriately throughout works.
  • Professional Removal: Engage a licenced professional to complete the removal work as per the WorkSafe compliance codes.

Your safety is our priority. Asbestos Testing and Asbestos Management is extremely important in modern day constructions.
