Asbestos Management Toolkit for NSW Councils
We have developed an Asbestos Management Toolkit for all NSW councils – to guide and support the integration of asbestos management into workplace systems and procedures...
Step 5 of the Toolkit addresses the need for ongoing review and auditing of Council’s Asbestos Management System.
It is important to review your Asbestos Management System periodically to ensure compliance with legislative and regulatory obligations and responsibilities, and ensuring correct controls are in place in minimising the exposure and disturbance to asbestos in the workplace.

This information has been produced as part of the Council’s Enforceable Undertaking (EU) with SafeWork NSW.
The Council entered into the Enforceable Undertaking after SafeWork NSW alleged that the Council contravened clauses 425(1), 429(2), 479(1), and 445(1) of the Work Health and Safety Regulation 2011. The full undertaking and general information about enforceable undertakings is available at www.safework.nsw.gov.au.
