Western Australia’s construction, mining, quarrying and resources sectors create significant exposure risks from respirable crystalline silica (RCS). Activities such as cutting, grinding, drilling and processing concrete, stone, bricks, engineered stone and other silica-containing materials can generate hazardous dust that may cause serious long-term health conditions, including silicosis and lung disease.
The nationally recognised 10830NAT Course in Crystalline Silica Exposure Prevention helps Perth workers identify silica hazards, understand associated health risks and apply effective control measures in the workplace. Delivered by AlertForce, this course supports workers and PCBUs in meeting their obligations under Western Australia’s work health and safety framework and WorkSafe WA guidance.
Course Overview
What You'll Learn
The 10830NAT Course in Crystalline Silica Exposure Prevention provides essential training on identifying crystalline silica hazards, understanding the health risks associated with respirable crystalline silica (RCS) and implementing effective control measures to minimise exposure. With silica-containing materials commonly encountered across Perth construction sites, mining operations, quarrying activities and infrastructure projects, this course equips workers with practical knowledge of exposure risks, hierarchy of controls, silica risk control plans, Safety Data Sheets (SDS) and safe work practices. Participants also gain an understanding of the Safe Work Australia Model Code of Practice: Managing the Risks of Respirable Crystalline Silica from Stone in the Workplace.

WA Requirement
Since 1 September 2024, Western Australia has introduced additional crystalline silica substance (CSS) regulations under the WHS (General) Regulations 2022. While accredited silica awareness training is not specifically mandated in the same way as some other jurisdictions, PCBUs must ensure workers are trained and competent when undertaking high-risk crystalline silica tasks.
The 10830NAT Course in Crystalline Silica Exposure Prevention helps workers and PCBUs understand silica hazards, exposure risks and practical control measures while supporting compliance with WA workplace health and safety requirements. Workers wanting to better understand the health impacts of exposure can learn more about silica dust and silicosis, while businesses navigating compliance obligations may find our guide to silica training requirements across Australia useful.

“Did a CPR refresher. Reminded me of the things I'd missed or forgotten about. Got it done and got out. Highly recommend. Of the 10 or so of these I've done, this is the first that actually felt like a useful refresher and not just trying to stay awake to check the boxes.”
“The AlertForce course for Enter and Work in Confined Spaces was very comprehensive and informative. John is a very experienced worker and instructor, which enhanced the training experience for all of the class, he answered all our questions from both the health and safety, and legal perspective, and would also use his own real-world experiences to demonstrate the answers. Thank you AlertForce Team and John, I'll recommend your courses to anybody who's looking for training.”
“Adam did a great job on silica and asbestos training, he was very thorough and the course well presented”
“Thank you for a great First Aid and CPR course. The training was well organised, informative, and easy to follow. I appreciated the hands-on practice,theories and clear explanations.

“Great training RTO for white card”
“Had my white card training today and it was an excellent experience all round. Being the only female in the group I was nervous at first, but everyone was so friendly (I don't think I touched a door once today lol) and welcoming. The instructor (shout out to Craig) was really interesting and friendly and made the course really engaging, time flew by! I 100% recommend these guys and will be going back soon to complete my working at heights certification.”
“Helped with learning new skills and techniques and learning stuff to go out to the force into the traffic control area”
“I was very nervous about doing my forklift training but Craig our instructor made me feel comfortable and confident. I highly recommend Alert Force for training. If you do your forklift training I hope you get Craig he is great to work with!”
“Fantastic, open and friendly atmosphere. Craig Hindle was knowledgeable and approachable. 10/10 Forklift Training, couldn't recommend better.”
“My instructor Craig Hindle is the best. He is very professional and high skilled on his expertise especially teaching on how to drive a forklift. I am very grateful that he is my instruction. If you want to get your forklift licence, I highly recommended tp enrol at Alertforce”
“Great experience completing my forklift course with Alert Force. The training was clear and practical. Instructor John Sanderson was very professional, patient, and easy to learn from. Highly recommend”

“Did my white card with trainer Craig, he was awesome, took time to explain a couple things for us slower learners, didn't over complicate the course was very straight Would recommend 100%”
“Kevin was really approachable and had a great sense of humour which provided a relaxed environment to learn in. I appreciated how he kept everyone engaged. Kevin was really good at applying theory into practice and allowing us to share our own WHS / HSR experiences so we could learn from each other. A big thank you to Kevin.”
“Did my Whitecard, Asbestos, Silica, and Working at Heights. All classes were informative, and succinct. The instructors were great, especially John, who did my working safely at heights.”
“Excellent course, I'm saying this because unless like most courses that are just plain boring. This course was run By Matt who I think is a great educator, he explains information in a way that's not just educational but also relevant to today's work practices, his insight and depth of knowledge shows his years on both subjects like asbestos and silica and how dangerous both can be, I'm now armed with the knowledge of how to treat these hazards and also how to prevent a problem that can be eliminated, I definitely recommend this course for anybody who wants to learn about asbestos and silica.”
“Just completed my forklift course with Craig, highly recommend”
“I'm really satisfied with the way the class was lead simple and easy to remember for the questions on the theory test. I'm really grateful that I'm given another chance to do train and do the practical test again which I didn't pass on the first time. So that I'm prepared to use the forklift without making mistakes when I do get my licence as well as work using the forklift.”
“Best Training Centre. I have done my forklift training from here. The trainer named "JOHN SANDERSON" is the best trainer to me. Recommended this place with 5 stars”

Is silica awareness training mandatory in Western Australia?
Western Australia requires PCBUs to ensure workers are trained and competent when undertaking high-risk crystalline silica tasks. The 10830NAT Course in Crystalline Silica Exposure Prevention provides nationally recognised training that supports these obligations.
What changed under WA's silica regulations in September 2024?
Additional crystalline silica substance regulations commenced on 1 September 2024 under the WHS (General) Regulations 2022. These changes introduced requirements relating to risk assessments, silica risk control plans, health monitoring and the management of high-risk crystalline silica work.
Does the engineered stone ban affect silica training requirements in WA?
Yes. While engineered stone is now banned in Western Australia, silica exposure risks remain present in many other materials, including concrete, brick, mortar, natural stone and quarry products. Workers may still require silica awareness training depending on the work being undertaken. You can also learn more about which occupations require mandatory silica training.
Which industries in Western Australia are most affected by crystalline silica regulations?
Construction, mining, quarrying, stone fabrication, manufacturing and infrastructure sectors are among the industries most affected by Western Australia’s crystalline silica requirements due to the prevalence of silica-containing materials and high-risk work activities.
Can the 10830NAT silica awareness course be completed remotely from regional WA?
Yes. AlertForce delivers the course through live webinar training, allowing workers throughout Perth and regional Western Australia to complete the training remotely while still receiving nationally recognised certification.
