  • Review the control measures for effectiveness and update the SWMS if needed
  • Update the SWMS in consultation with workers and tell people on-site about the changes
  • Carry out air monitoring and review the results
  • Provide health monitoring for all workers conducting high-risk silica-related work
  • Read the guidance notes worksafe.tas.gov.au/silicasafe
