As Australia’s largest construction market, Sydney continues to experience significant demand for workers who understand silica hazards and effective control measures. Construction, infrastructure, demolition and renovation activities regularly involve materials that contain crystalline silica, including concrete, bricks, mortar, tiles and stone products. When these materials are cut, drilled, ground or demolished, they can generate respirable crystalline silica (RCS), a hazardous dust linked to serious long-term health conditions.
The nationally recognised 10830NAT Course in Crystalline Silica Exposure Prevention helps Sydney workers identify silica hazards, understand associated health risks and apply effective control measures in the workplace. Delivered by AlertForce, this silica awareness training Sydney course supports workers and PCBUs in meeting their obligations under New South Wales work health and safety legislation and SafeWork NSW requirements.
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 Sydney construction sites, infrastructure projects, demolition works and renovation activities, 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.

Statement of Attainment
Workers involved in high-risk processing of crystalline silica substances
Electricians, plumbers, carpenters, tilers, concreters and installers
Civil construction, transport and major infrastructure projects
High-risk activities involving concrete, masonry, stone and renovation materials
In New South Wales, workers involved in high-risk processing of crystalline silica substances (CSS) must complete an approved silica training course under the WHS Regulation 2017 (NSW). Approved training courses include the 10830NAT Course in Crystalline Silica Exposure Prevention, CPCSIL3001 and CPCSIL4001.
The 10830NAT course helps workers and PCBUs understand silica hazards, exposure risks and practical control measures while supporting compliance with NSW workplace health and safety requirements. Employers must keep training records while workers carry out high-risk processing of crystalline silica substances and for five years after that work ceases.
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.
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.

Yes. The 10830NAT Course in Crystalline Silica Exposure Prevention is an approved silica training course for workers undertaking high-risk processing of crystalline silica substances in NSW.
Although the national engineered stone ban commenced in July 2024, silica exposure risks remain present in many other materials, including concrete, brick, mortar, natural stone and masonry 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.
Employers must retain training records while workers continue carrying out high-risk processing of crystalline silica substances and for five years after that work ceases.
