About
Asbestos exposure continues to present a significant health risk across construction, demolition, maintenance, manufacturing, and infrastructure industries. Employers have a legal obligation to monitor the health of workers who may be exposed to asbestos and to maintain accurate medical records over the course of employment. Qualitas Occupational Health delivers compliant, structured asbestos health surveillance programs designed to protect workers and reduce employer risk.
Our asbestos health surveillance services support organisations at every stage of employment, providing clear medical oversight from commencement through to end of exposure. All assessments are delivered in line with Australian workplace health and safety requirements and supported by appropriate laboratory services.
We provide:
Baseline asbestos health surveillance prior to exposure or role commencement
Periodic asbestos health surveillance, conducted every two years or as required
Exit asbestos health surveillance to document health status at the end of exposure or employment
Access to laboratory services where required for testing and monitoring
Optional instant drug and alcohol screening
Optional audiometry (hearing testing) for noise-exposed roles
Assessments are conducted by experienced occupational health clinicians using evidence-based protocols. Clinical results are reviewed carefully and reported clearly, allowing employers to meet their obligations while maintaining worker confidentiality.
