The current National Asbestos Awareness Campaign will launch in April 2026.

A guide to provide a robust and nationally consistent process for conducting asbestos surveys so that effective actions can be taken to prevent exposure to airborne asbestos fibres. 
 

Sometimes asbestos is found in a product that has already been imported into Australia. ASSEA publishes safety alerts and provides links to recalls helping the public be aware of any possible asbestos risk.

The ANSP 2024–2030 has 3 aims: to eliminate asbestos-related diseases in Australia, to support people affected by asbestos-related diseases, and to advocate for a worldwide ban on the production and trade of asbestos. A national action plan supports each of these aims.

Australia faces a growing risk from ageing asbestos-containing materials in homes, public buildings, and contaminated land. it is important to identify and safely managing asbestos to prevent future exposure and asbestos-related diseases.

Data around previous unlawful imports are used to protect Australia from possible future unlawful imports. If an organisation has had previous unlawful imports their shipments will be under greater scrutiny.
