Asbestos is a harmful material that still appears in homes and buildings throughout Australia. Whether you want a job in asbestos management or have a job that includes the risk of exposure to asbestos, we offer the training you need. OHS.com.au is your source for face-to-face asbestos awareness training in Brisbane.  Or visit our main Asbestos Awareness Training Course page.

Asbestos Awareness Training Course Brisbane

If you work in the construction industry or home renovation sector, you may need to complete asbestos training in Brisbane. Asbestos awareness training is necessary for construction workers, demolition workers, and more. Studies have also found that Australian schools often contain asbestos.

Any work that includes a potential health risk requires relevant training. For example, electricians, plumbers, and emergency service workers may also require asbestos safety training. Home renovators, including DIY renovators, should also complete asbestos awareness courses. 

Asbestos was completely banned in the country in 2003. Older structures are more likely to contain asbestos products, such as cement sheets. Completing a home renovation increases the risk of exposure to asbestos for those who do not know what to look for.

Asbestos Training Protects Against Asbestos Exposure

Our face-to-face asbestos awareness training helps you identify asbestos-containing material (ACM) and reduce your risk of exposure. Exposure to asbestos continues to harm people in a wide range of industries. Over 4,000 Australians die each year from asbestos-related diseases, such as asbestosis. 

Asbestos typically becomes a safety concern when asbestos fibers are released into the air, which is more likely to occur with friable asbestos. Asbestos products belong to one of two categories – friable (non-bonded) and non-friable (bonded). 

Friable asbestos includes asbestos products that are more prone to damage. These items may break or flake easily, releasing inhalable fibers into the air. Examples of friable asbestos include old pipe insulation, insulation boards, and spray coatings.

Crushing friable asbestos discharges small particles into the air. Inhaling the particles into the lungs may cause scarring and increase the risk of several health issues, including:

  • Asbestosis
  • Pleural disease
  • Lung cancer
  • Mesothelioma

Asbestosis is scarring that occurs in the lungs due to exposure to asbestos fibers. The scarring may cause breathing difficulties and other complications. The best way to avoid asbestos exposure is to learn what it looks like and where to find it through asbestos courses in Brisbane.

Learn to Identify Asbestos with an Asbestos Course Brisbane

The 10675NAT (asbestos awareness training) unit of competency is intended to teach you how to identify and report asbestos. Here are some of the topics covered during our face-to-face asbestos awareness course in Brisbane:

  • The types and properties of asbestos
  • Common locations and sources of asbestos
  • Potential asbestos-related health hazards
  • Health and safety procedures

The typical asbestos course duration is about four hours. We offer in-person training, which is more effective compared to online training options. Face-to-face training is more immersive, increasing the retention of information.

Our asbestos awareness course covers the hazards and identification of asbestos. Many people do not know what to look for when inspecting an area for asbestos products, as asbestos has been banned for close to two decades. We explain the various types of asbestos, along with the most common sources and locations of asbestos-containing material.

Pre-course materials are made available after enrolling. Participants must also complete white card training (construction induction training) before taking asbestos removal courses. 

After the successful completion of the asbestos awareness course in Brisbane, you receive a statement of attainment. The statement acts as your asbestos awareness certificate. It demonstrates that you are aware of the hazards of asbestos and how to identify it. However, if you need to remove asbestos, you will likely need to complete additional asbestos safety courses.

When Do You Need an Asbestos Removal License?

An asbestos license is a legal requirement for the removal of any amount of non-bonded (friable) asbestos and more than 10m2 of bonded (non-friable) asbestos. Asbestos removal courses are needed to meet the regulatory requirements for licensed asbestos removal work.

At OHS.com.au, we offer all necessary asbestos removal courses. Workers who participate in the removal of asbestos need to complete the Class A course for friable ACM and Class B course for non-friable ACM. 

Along with the two removal courses, supervisors may take the asbestos supervisor course. The supervisor course is for those who need to oversee and manage asbestos removal plans. For those who need an asbestos license for developing removal plans, we offer the asbestos assessor course.

OHS.com.au is a preferred choice for safety training in Queensland. We started offering safety courses in 2006 and remain committed to delivering the best training available. Contact us today to schedule your asbestos awareness training course in Brisbane.

Foes at the Top Table
Format: Kindle
Those of us who studied economics in the 60s grew up on Keynes. This book provides a fascinating picture of the great man in action. And an equally fascinating picture of the Lend Lease negotiations and then the US hard line at Bretton Woods. Behind this hard line was Harry Woods, of Lithuanian emigre stock, who clawed his way by hard work and intelligence to negotiating prominence in the US Treasury. And who was a Soviet agent of influence. Well written, lucid, and remarkably interesting.

A distant mirror of our current problems
Format: Hardcover
The title of this excellent book accurately describes its contents:it is about a battle fought to define a new world order, that which was emerging from the ashes of World War II. The book also conveys the messy complexity of such a historical process--how individual characters interpreted the events around them, realized that they were giving shape to a radically new future, tried to take advantage of them to advance their own personal and national interests, and succeeded in accordance with their intelligence, the cunning of their argumentation, and, above all, the shifts in the real power that supported them. Masterly, Benn Steil makes the reader feel how Keynes and White gradually reached an unspoken and unrecognized agreement regarding the shape that the new world would have, and then fought to gain advantage in that new world--Keynes trying to keep the British Empire paramount in the world order, now based not on the Royal Navy but on Britain's alliance with the United States, the emerging superpower, and White asserting the unimpeded power of the United States. Focusing on one crucial aspect of the new order, money, Steil is able to reenact the human drama of the transfer of world power from Britain to the United States in all orders of life. It is an excellent history book. The book, however, goes beyond history as the narration and understanding of past events. When reading it, there is an eerie feeling that you are reading about current events. The process that led to Bretton Woods started thirty years before, with World War I and the end of the classical gold standard. When the war ended, a new monetary system was created, which was called the gold exchange standard. It resembled but emasculated the power of the old gold standard to keep monetary order in the world at large. This new system gave central banks the power to create money independently of the international consequences of doing it. With time, central banks abused this power, created a boom in the 1920s and then a depression in the 1930s. Bretton Woods was convened to reintroduce order in the monetary world. Like the gold standard of old, the new system created there was tied to gold in an effort to ensure stability. Yet, it also allowed central banks freedom to create money under certain circumstances. As it happened in the 1920s and 1930s, central banks abused their power, blew up the international system (in this case the Bretton Woods system) and then led the world into a series of booms and busts that has not ended as yet. A new monetary order will be needed to avoid worldwide inflation and protracted recessions. To understand the issues that will be crucial to give shape to this new monetary order it will be necessary to revisit the making of Bretton Woods in detail. There is no better way to understand these issues that Ben Steil's The Battle of Bretton Woods. Thus, in addition to being an excellent history book, it is also an excellent book about current events. Full disclosure: I wrote a previous book with Benn Steil: Money, Markets and Sovereignty (Yale University Press, 2009).

The Battle of Bretton Woods
Format: Hardcover
From the growing reliance upon international finance and the devastating repercussions of two World Wars, Steil weaves together an important narrative that tells the story of America's rise to the world stage as a major power. Britain's reign of dominance comes to an abrupt end under the weight of the Second World War and the dependence of their territories. Reliance on foreign aid and mounting debt put Britain in a precarious situation for which the United States capitalized on to secure its place as the dominant world power. Through the ideas and experiences of two brilliant economists, Harry White and John Keynes, were guided through the creation and implementation of an economic solution to remedy, and further amalgamate the global financial framework. At Bretton Woods, White and Keynes promote slightly different plans that form the International Monetary Fund and World Bank; organizations designed to monitor, stabilize, and assist international finance. To Britain, and much of the world's chagrin, the organizations are formed in a manner that benefited the United States post-World War Two position as a creditor nation. Dollar dominance in the newly designed financial markets promotes short-term growth for the United States. However, financial mismanagement and over-extension soon lead the U.S. down a path of monetary hardship that ultimately results in our current situation as debtor nations (much like Britain was when the story began). The author ends the narrative by chronicling the effects of Bretton Woods on the United States, Britain, and international finance from the mid-twentieth century to the present. This book tells the remarkable story of America's rise to power through a financial lens. Steil is a wonderful writer who describes complex ideas of monetary policy, international economics, and currency manipulation in such a manner that is easy to understand and leaves the reader wanting more.

A concise, readable history of European developments prior to W.W. i.
Format: Paperback
This is part of a 4 volume series on (primarily) European history covering the development of the French and Industrial revolution(s) with particular emphasis on the Belle Epoque that marked the end of nearly 100 years of peace among the European Powers. It covers a variety of topics ranging from the emergence of the working classes; the role of the middle class; industrial capitalism; nationalism; the sciences and the arts; and, even a chapter on the "New Woman". Quite encompassing in its treatment and its analysis of the a period that serves as a background to the twentieth century.

Un comentario
Format: Paperback
El mundo burgués generó desarrollos muy importantes para los habitantes de Europa Occidental particularmente; incrementó de manera importante los niveles de vida de una porción significativa de la sociedad, introdujo innovaciones claras en las ciencias, en lo educativo, en el comercio global y en el intercambio entre diferentes culturas. Mejoró la productividad, las comunicaciones, la alimentación......Pero también incorporó consigo tendencias negativas y difíciles que cambiaron para siempre la interrelación entre pares al crearse una diferencia significativa de clases, la alta, burguesa y la trabajadora y proletaria, continuó la discriminación sobre la campesina, estableció el concepto forzado de nacionalismo, transformó a los países mas desarrollados en imperios con ansias de crecimiento y de dominio de los menos preparados, se evidenció la explotación del tercer mundo, se inició el armamentismo y la instigación a la guerra que culminó con la desastrosa confrontación de 1914. El mundo, a partir de ese momento no volverá a ser igual. Todos estos conceptos, esta historia, están amenamente descritos por el autor, con un gran conocimiento de la época y con una inteligente asociación de los acontecimientos para hacer entender al lector sus grandes transformaciones e implicaciones. Como los otros tres libros de la serie, lo recomiendo ampliamente. Permite entender todo la evolución de nuestra civilización en los dos últimos siglos así como la influencia generada por los grandes imperios de la época y sus pensadores
