Here is the recording of our "Dust Exposure: Preventing Occupational Disease" webinar, in collaboration with WorkSafe's James Webster.
James is the Principal Advisor of WorkSafe's Construction Support Unit. He helps understanding the risks of dust exposure, and what can be done to eliminate or reduce it, your rights as a worker, and the obligations employers have to keep you safe.
This webinar focused on the exposure in the construction industry, but the hazards and protections discussed will be relevant to anyone who may be exposed to hazardous dust in their workplace.
