As we head toward Christmas and into 2026, it’s already shaping up to be a very hot Australian summer.
Hot, dry conditions create near-perfect environments for dust and without strong controls, risks across mining and construction sites can escalate quickly.
I’ve been giving thoughtful consideration to how the strengthened dust and respirable crystalline silica regulations are taking effect across our industries.
And through ongoing conversations with clients, contractors and community partners, one message continues to stand out:
Dust control isn’t just regulatory: it’s a genuine health, safety and cultural responsibility.
As an Indigenous-owned supplier, SSG remains committed to supporting safer workplaces for everyone, including the many Indigenous workers who play a vital role across sites every day. Ensuring the right respiratory protection, effective dust-control solutions and fit-for-purpose PPE is part of that responsibility.
The SSG team is available to conduct onsite audits of dust-control equipment, masks, filters and usage practices to help sites meet new standards and protect worker wellbeing.
A proactive review now can prevent far more serious issues down the track.
If you’d like to have a conversation, I’m always happy to share what I’ve learned - Once I remove my mask of course.
