Asbestos Exposure Register

NT WorkSafe, other government agencies, representatives of unions, employers, the medical profession, housing associations and Emergency Services are currently investigating the development of an asbestos register for people who believe they may have been exposed to asbestos in work and non-work situations.

In the meantime:

If you have been exposed to asbestos fibres in the course of your work, contact NT WorkSafe.

If you have been exposed to asbestos fibres in the course of your work and you are a government worker complete an incident form and submit to DCIS. (Form can only be accessed from the NT Government network.)

If you have been exposed to asbestos fibres in a domestic situation, record the details and obtain any witness details, photographs, etc. They will be useful for future reference and will assist if you need to apply to be put on the register.
