This survey seeks feedback from AWU members and workers in AWU industries around Australia about silica dust exposure and management in your workplace. We want to hear whether your employer is providing adequate protection for workers and how silica dust issues are managed when they do arise.

Your responses will be used to support submissions to government, and to develop effective approaches for the management of silica dust hazards in the workplace.
