Workplace respiratory safety for NSW industries
Keeping employees safe and employers compliant.
Not sure what you need?
New NSW laws mean fit testing and silica training are now mandatory for many industries. If you’re not sure what applies to your business, start here.
Is your business compliant with new laws? Is your team trained and protected?
If your workers are exposed to high-risk crystalline silica substances on the job, NSW law now requires you to act. Businesses in mining, construction, quarrying, drilling and beyond must ensure their workers are trained in silica safety and fit tested for respirators every single year.
At Munro Respiratory Services, we make that simple. Our fit testing and training is delivered by people who understand the real consequences of exposure to hazardous airborne particles in the workplace. When your team leaves a Munro session, they are genuinely protected, fully certified, and your business is covered.
