Under WHS legislation, workers must be appropriately trained and licensed before removing asbestos.

Awareness training is mandatory for workers who may encounter asbestos-containing materials on the job.

Yes. Workers who may encounter or are required to remove asbestos-containing materials must complete awareness training as a minimum. Additional licensing courses are legally required for removing more than 10 square metres of non-friable asbestos or any amount of friable asbestos.
It depends on the course. The online awareness course is self-paced. The Class B (non-friable) and supervision courses each take one full day. The Class A (friable) and conduct assessment courses each take two full days.
Courses start from $97 for the online awareness program (free under some funded conditions). Class B costs $347, Class A costs $997, the supervision course is $447, and the conduct assessment course is $997. Group discounts are available.
A licence is required to remove more than 10 square metres of non-friable asbestos (Class B licence) or any quantity of friable asbestos (Class A licence). Workers removing smaller amounts of non-friable asbestos may not require a licence, but should always check current local regulations.
A Class B licence covers the removal of non-friable asbestos — materials like cement sheets, vinyl floor tiles and roofing products. A Class A licence covers friable asbestos, which includes more hazardous loose or powdery materials such as pipe lagging, sprayed insulation and boiler insulation.
Yes — group or corporate bookings are available. Many training providers can deliver onsite sessions for larger teams, tailor scheduling, or offer bulk enrolment options. Team training ensures everyone meets NSW legal requirements and follows consistent, safe work practices.
